The Vestal is a particularly adaptable figure for many different eras, or for fantasy.

What range are these from.

From a range i had in mind ages ago and just managed to get a sculptor to have a go at them.

Also what's planned for the future

Its a bit of a confusing list at the moment, from Slaves to Merchants and Thugs to Nobles, Military types and the such , here's a few sketches i got back as a taster.

Female Brothel Keeper

Aaarghh :o :-*

Looking at the nice new Carthaginians from Agema Miniatures I was just thinking that I could well be tempted by some RPG-inspired skirmish games in this period if I had more civilians... and you plan to do all this!

The vestal could certainly pass as the (fictional) character of Salammbô...

Yes, we certainly do. Any idea when they are going to be available?

btw, who is the sculptor?

Very nice, maybe we could have a couple of retired centurions to cause havoc. In the future a gladiator rebellion. THE CID.

Post by: warburton on 04 December 2014, 06:40:15 PM
Very nice - I would certainly buy them.
Title: Re: Vestal and Senator WIP's
Post by: Furt on 04 December 2014, 07:19:48 PM
Agreed - beautiful figures!!  :-*

I think a range along the types you have mentioned will go very well.
Title: Re: Vestal and Senator WIP's
Post by: rumacara on 04 December 2014, 07:31:52 PM
Yup.
More civilians would be welcome.
Some street gang thugs armed with swords, daggers and clubs would be nice too.
Title: Re: Vestal and Senator WIP's
Post by: Firescale Whack on 05 December 2014, 01:58:46 AM
Be interested to see how these size up with Agema miniatures and the more proportioned figures as Foundry's civilians are abit chunky for my taste and these look great!
Title: Re: Vestal and Senator WIP's
Post by: HerbyF on 05 December 2014, 10:32:37 AM
I am planning to build an arena for my gladiators. The more Roman civillians out there the better. Deffinately looking forward to seeing these to help populate the stands.

We never have enough roman civilians and these ones are awesome. Should they be released soon ? Will you cast and sell them ?
Title: Re: Vestal and Senator WIP's
Post by: AndyW on 18 December 2014, 02:41:01 PM
Hi all,

just had the finished pics from the sculptor for the two, thought i would share
(http://i1077.photobucket.com/albums/w470/BOFStudio/Senator00_zps873adbe1.jpg) (http://s1077.photobucket.com/user/BOFStudio/media/Senator00_zps873adbe1.jpg.html)
(http://i1077.photobucket.com/albums/w470/BOFStudio/Vestal00_zps002d272c.jpg) (http://s1077.photobucket.com/user/BOFStudio/media/Vestal00_zps002d272c.jpg.html)

also given the nod for the next three pieces.

1 )Roman General. His helmet carried under his arm as he looks with a smile at the ladies and a wink to his men. A proud and capable leader. His cloak over his back.
 
2) Imperial Princess. Born into wealth and power and not afraid to show it in public and private. Fine dresses and silks with gold to show her position and wealth.

3) Brothel Keeper, which you've seen the artwork for :)

The two finished will be going into a mould around late January. Gang types are to follow after the other three.

Wow, completely missed this thread. :o
Excellent work you're showing here. Very nice historical-ish characters, a great addition to any Rome-inspired game for sure. Any guess, if, when and where they may be available for purchase?

Yes she did and was a pleasure to work with :) It was Song of Shadows and Dust that inspired me to ask her to work on the concepts i gave her :)

Andy W. as a fellow marxist can I just say I adore your photo. If you ever sculpt and produce Marx Brothers miniatures please understand I will buy bucket loads.

Could I possibly suggest (IF you are keen on ideas) that you sculpt 2-3 sitting senate bodies, with neck sockets and 3-4 heads, it means you could fill a senate with essentially the same set of figures but mishmash heads & positions. I love your sculpt style so its just an idea.
