Wasn't it you I bought all my gladiators from, all those years ago? Glad to hear you got the bug again...

Really cool looking.  8)

I like the retiarius' skull like mask a lot - would not have thought of doing it like that.

Yeah - I thought I remember seeing you selling off your stuff too Nick during a search on LAF for gladiator stuff myself.

Very nice. A really clean and neat style which sets the miniatures off nicely.  :D

There does seen to be a bit of a push on gladiators around here lately.

I did indeed sell them all to LeadAsbestos and then when Foundry released their Galdiator rules I went and purchased the Crusader Miniatures packs instead...I couldn't help myself lol

Some very nice figures, but a few of them are a bit short in the leg department and look a bit stumpy.

True, some are vertically challenged, but they are more historically accurate then Foundry (although I love Foundry too!).  :)

You can see it well in Dozing Dragon's last pic. The second mini is a Foundry dwarf murmillo and even without his fancy hat he is almost as tall as the Crusader ones!  o_o

Again, very nice. The dark metal parts give good contrast to the other colours, especially the fleshtones (which are well done). Like 'em. :)
