I know I'm late to the party on this (as usual), but here are the Crusader gladiators I've managed to paint up and not sell. Some of my friends balked at the "bulky" appearance of these in the bare lead, but they paint up very nicely.
They look great.
Nice inspiration.
I haven't got around to making my order yet so if anyone has unpainted Crusader ones they don't want (and at a bargain price, of course
) feel free to drop me a PM.
