Brainstorm: EA/MA/LA Arabian/Islamic themed nation

The shading looks very nice apart from the yellowness. I also used to paint miniatures, and found it very helpful when making sprites - I think they have quite a bit in common.
As for the size - I can only claim madness as an excuse!

Actually, I think a little yellowish tinge is good...gives it a sandy desert feel.

Bottom line, however: make it look good to your own standards.
