Gave all upper bodies a base coat, and painted all bows in 5 different blue-tints as base for a look like the blue-white fibred Blue Mahoe tree of Jamaica.

I'm working on the Fautyrs and instead of one-coloured feathers, I considered adding more 'life' to the feathers.
But it was suggested that the easy battlefield distinction would be slightly lost by doing so.
A solution could be painting the bows in the base colour (instead of all being of The Blue Mahoe).
So I surfed a little and indeed found some wood types that could do the trick.
Blue (): The Blue Mahoe
Red (Amberleaf)
Yellow (Osage Orange)
Green (Tulip Poplar)
Renamed the units, andp painted more on the...
