http://lists.csua.berkeley.edu/mailman/listinfo/gzg-lIf you are
interested in a more samurai look, perhaps for the hard armor
parts, the classic colors for samurai armor are glossy black or a
reddish
brown.	Details can be of just about any color, but the belts should be
white. Repeating prints, particulaly of flowers or other japanese
heraldic
objects are common - in 15mm scale these would probably just show up as
dots
or faint patches of color.  I could also envision a 3-D holographic
banner
or staff or even holographic sashimono on each soldier.
