The Peony Wars Project will clearly require a lot of horse painting. Here's a couple of very helpful photo-illustrations of the classic Gilder method of painting horses quickly, but using acrylics rather than old school enamels and oils:
It's also worth looking at the One Man and his Brushes Blog, where there is an illustrated walk through of how to paint brown/chestnut horses with enamels and oils, starting with an enamel undercoat in yellow (Humbrol 74 Sand or Humbrol 83 Ochre) followed by Burnt Umber or Burnt Sienna oil paint "laid on" and then "wiped off", plus invaluable notes on how to paint a white horse using Vallejo acrylics.
Add Edit :THIS WEBPAGE has a very useful - and fully illustrated - guide to painting horses "in the GW style" using GW acrylics.
