Here is my not so secrets Santa build for Comrade Greens of their Ottoman Empire Army.

The truck is based off of old pictures and modal diagrams of world war 1 Ottoman army trucks

I like how the truck turned out and it is similar to my style of vehicles and will probably use it.

I am also aware of how my first post in the armory is of a build of someone else army

I commanded these guys in a battle once (and got their sultan killed...). Is it weird that I like the Fez's they use the most no matter what else is accompanying them?

fez came to the ottoman egypt. It has recently become popular among the public and gained value like a tie. it is not used in the new Turkish state with the declaration of the republic. Nowadays they call the fez-wearer crazy.

In general, he did not wear fez on Ottoman battlefields. A cloth hat, more commonly called a cap, was used.

The car is good. In the Ottoman Empire, the vehicles were generally used by senior officers. The army would fight more by horse, camel, and on foot. At that time, the world was like that in general :)

I misread it as "the vehicles were generally senior officers" and thought that's a pretty good idea for an army

I used this article https://www.ottoman-uniforms.com/ww1-ot ... -markings/
For the design of my vehicle, I went with sand rather then white because I do not have any white auto body. In the article it dose state that it is Phasha's Staff car.
As for the uniforms that's a copy of Comrade Green's space Ottomans as part of the Secrets Santa build challenge. https://brikwars.com/forums/viewtopic.p ... 78#p359978

Since it is our history, I know it in detail. I talked about the real Ottoman army. I have nothing to say to the Brikwers version. I run a forum about wars, history and strategies.

From the title, I thought this thread was about a ninja Santa building a footstool.
