Brilliant!!  :-*

I'd never had known it was a conversion - very nicely done Nick.

How much greenstuffing did you have to do - just the visor?

And it looks even better in the flesh (lead?). Malamute's Ludus is sporting some very fine gladiators, if only they fought as good as they looked  lol

I really like Scorpio. That is a great conversion.  What colors did you use for the bronze? Mine always looks like gold when I paint it. Again great work.

Apologies for resurrecting this thread, not something I would do  lightly. ;)

However I realised whilst going through my gallery I had not added the remaining members of my Ludus, so for completeness here are the latest two.

Duros The Arbelus: Straight out of the box, no modication other than to replace the cutting blade as it broke when being cleaned up.




 
Barca The Myrmillo: He has his round shield replaced with a Scutum and the helmet converted. His arms repositioned to a more suitable pose.







I still have several more languishing on the painting shelf including a Secutor and an alternative Retiarius. I'll get around to the them one day lol
