I might come back to it after finishing the background.<br /><br />I am skeptic about such items now. There is a sword that is claimed to belong to Hari Singh Nalwa.<br />If you google Hari Singh Nalwa, you'll see it. Apparently, it does not belong to him. It is a European-influenced hilt and of a later period. (Says Davinder Singh Toor, and it makes sense, Indian talwars have a different hilt and all his paintings show him with a Indian talwar) <br /><br />Also those shastar appear way too big for a a small dumalla. The khanda and chakars up there are HUGE.Bhagat Singh Bedihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02451649828098635206noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1518622636073031497.post-6969118586429051682011-11-06T17:44:01.407-05:002011-11-06T17:44:01.407-05:00The dumalla looks way better now, not sure if you ...The dumalla looks way better now, not sure if you knew this, but the way the larh is on the forehead is called by the Nihang Singhs,a jangi larh or battle wrap. It's very thick and sort of sticks out from the forehead to protect the forehead from blows to the forehead, so it adds a more realistic touch.<br /><br />Also you may want to check out this pic and see some of Baba Deep Singh Ji's dumalla shastars, you may want to incorporate them into the painting. These shastars are at Akal Takht.<br /><br />http://www.sikhiwiki.org/images/thumb/9/9b/Shastars.JPG/300px-Shastars.JPGAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1518622636073031497.post-82842716919105627152011-08-18T11:57:17.683-04:002011-08-18T11:57:17.683-04:00Hi Gursheel,
