Dean Bedlington of Olympian Games
http://olympian-games.freeyellow.com/superior_elements.html does this,
primarily for DBA/DBM/Chipco although I'm sure he'd be happy to do
whatever
other base size you'd want.  I got some Syrian and Early Crusaders a
couple
of years ago, when I had a DBM opponent.  I told him who I wanted as
generals (eg Imad ed Din Zenghi, Joscelin of Edessa etc), he did all the
rest of the research and graphics.  It's not $2-3 per army, but they
look
good--not as good as full dress minis but they're easy to store, you
never
