Gladiators & other ancient minis

[Mellal]

Hi there !

I'm settling here to post my Antiquity stuff. For now more are metal and grey plastic but I managed to paint all my gladiators through a contest with a friend.

Those are from Crusader Miniatures. I used a lot of contrast paint : Guilliman,Darkoath flesh, apothicary white, wyldwood and Leather brown from Army Painter. For the rest I used various colours from various brand but I used only "Tones" from Army Painter to shade them.

Not a huge painting level but I'm happy with how it looks at the end, just like how I wanted them : simple and efficient, more epic than realistic.











That's all for now, I need to get back to futuristic stuff but I hope I'll get time to paint Gangs of Rome, Mortal Gods and SQPR stuff soon enough.

They look good - that set of models does seem to be the favourite set of gladiators!

I do like the arena, looks very rugged, so I’m thinking in a more far flung corner of the Empire, not in Rome.

Nice! 

Always great to see Crusader Gladiators in action and getting painted.

Thank you for your kind words. Now it's time to read the rules and play some games !

I've painted some ancient !

A celtic woman with her child from Warlord Games and a big resin objective with tons of loot. This is a piece I've been offered in a french tournament of Saga. The guys have sculpted it themselves and offered one to every contestant. It has waited for too long before being painted but... there it is.








I painted it along an ancient mini but it will befinitely be used in othe dark age and medieval games. Hope you like it.

Nice job on the terrain piece.  I find pieces like that the hardest to paint.  A lot of little details can be annoying as heck on a terrain piece.
