Title: 28mm Greek actor?

Does anyone know of a 28mm Greek actor, or a figure wearing/holding an actor's mask? Or is this going to have to be a conversion and greenstuff job...?

OOOOOoooooohhhhhh. A bit more Palpatine than I was going for - but he could well work.

Thank you!

How about Socrates by Reaper? You would have to miliput the mask though...

Socrates looks weird, out of proportion I think. Nicely painted though.

Very interesting topic indeed. I think the Socrates looks fine, if maybe a little narrowly hipped. :D

I wonder if there are m/any Greek civilians (as opposed to Roman civilians) in 28mm that could be converted? The Sokrates is not bad, but not quite what I was after. The Gang's of Rome Agent is, I feel, just a bit too cloaky/Palpatine.

This is for a character in a Dionysiac/Bacchae themed army, so I'd like a bit of 'animation' to the pose if possible.

Begging AND choosing!  ;D

In addition to the fantasy range Wargames Foundry makes over a dozen sets of ancient civilians.   Some of which might do though masks may need to be made.
