Hmm, seeing back the picture, I guess the romans are trying to charge towards the sun and blind their opponents by reflecting it ;D

Mental note: Take more time then 5 minutes to take the picture and send it to cap'n blood  lol

I guess this round is between Light and Darkness, you have too much light in your pictures and I have too little in mine  ;D

Love the Romans though!

These are the Warlors games Romans

If I had known that their shield (left) arm were case that horribly I might not have bought them. All the arms needed serious reconstruction and I was at a cetain point just to lazy to be bothered to remove all the metal not suppossed to be there. You can still see this quite well on the 1,3 and 5 roman. The right arms are also a pain in the ass to glue to the torso. the amount of space available gives very little opportunity for positioning not, pinning..

Actually thinking about it, I would not buy if I knew those thing earlier. I just ordered some plastic wargames factory romans to see if those will fit better with my army. At the very least they will be easier to convert and plastic and I won't care that much if they are lacking a bit in detail. At least they will be easy to transport  lol

This is the second time I've voted for those hobbits. I must like them , but I can't put my finger on it. Is it the 'gritty' feeling, is it the absurdity of small people with big guns, is it the 'pirate' influence? Who can say, but very well done, anyway.

Both entries certainly have their merits. Tough decision.
