Looking for Middle Eastern characters, esp. masculine

cheard

Hey folks, I am working on a project with a large number of scenes set in the Ancient Near East, a.k.a. the Middle East, a.k.a. Southwestern Asia, from the Bronze Age up to the fourth century BCE (ending a little before Alexander the Great). I’m wondering what existing characters you might suggest to credibly represent persons in this range of haplotypes: Assyroid and Arabid especially, with Armenid, Iranid, and Anatolid not too far afield. Put in modern terms, I need characters designed (or easily adaptable) to look Arabian, Iranian, Iraqi, Turkish — not African, although South Asian (Indian/Pakistani) characters can work with some tweaks. 

• Masculine characters I'm already using: Djinnoah, Nasiri, Ravi, Davit, Novak (G8); Arran, Enkil, Abel (G3); Sulaiman (G3); Ibrahim (G1)
• Masculine characters in my wishlist: Nahuel (G9)
• Feminine characters already using: Maryam (G9); Aakash, Ahmunet, Anat, Ara, Djinneah (just added), Elaheh, KemeMau, Khemsit (plus alt shapes), Nailah, Nenetesh, Rima, Twosret (plus alt shapes), Zahra (G8); Akasha, Amisi, Sushmita, Taia (G3)
• Feminine characters in wishlist: Yaelle, plus a few marketed as Arabian at a different marketplace

Can you suggest other characters — especially masculine — that work well to represent the desired haplotypes?

Content creators, you can consider this a request for more Arabian-appearing characters if you want to.

All the Sanjay 8 guys, if South Asian might work.

I think Marcos for Diego 8 is supposed to be Filipino, but I'd say he could pass for Arab. Since you have Khemsit, Twosret and Ahmunet in your list, I'd add other Egyptian-themed characters Akhenaten and Tchanun (whom you could convert to G8), although those are slightly more African than the Egyptian-themed females. Elios and add-on characters like Zeno have Mediterranean features that could MAYBE pass for Turkish. It's definitely an underrepresented demographics.

I played around a little with Sanjay last night. In the picture, base Sanjay is in the middle. On the viewer's left is Sanjay wearing Arran's skin after applying Michael 7 UVs with RedzStudio's character UV. On the right is Sanjay wearing Khemsit's skin (using the SloshWerks M/F UV swapper). This technique is quicker than experimenting with gammas and such, although I have also had some success with Silas3D's 1-Click PBR Skin and Universal Gamma Adjuster.
