Roman Statues

[Michi]

Once upon a time there was a fine warrior.
Actually she had been the finest the ancient world had ever seen.
Her name got lost, but her reputation remained.
The Romans had erected a memorial to honour her.



Short after dawn the eternal sentinel stands guard by the side of the road between Rome and Ostia.



A few minutes later the bright sun breaks through and lights the morning.
The guard does not move a bit.




And there she stands as tall and brave like a thousand times thousand sunsets before:
The best of all - PRIMA OMNIA.

Some very interesting looking statues there - wonder who modelled for them ?

[Mancha]

Very nice work.  But around the 300th picture it started to seem just a trifle gratuitous.

[Mac Finn]

Nice Patina   

[Calimero]

Nice, who make the figures? 

[Hitman]

Are these 54 mm figures? Did you paint these? If so, the weathered copper has been done very nicely...excellent work. Thanks for sharing.

These are 90mm from El Viejo Dragon. The bases are scratchbuilt by me.

I like them too, but 3-5 pics would have been enough for me too!

Oooh, you scallywag

Tell you what, I wouldn't mind a lifesize pair of those gladiator girlies on a plinth in my back garden 

They'd go a treat in my shrubbery.
Such lovely verdigris.
