So this is what you were up to today while the rest of us were out playing.
He looks bloody good, mate!

Nice conversion work.
Even his Liberace pom-poms look good.

He is brilliant mate - well done!! Just like a bought one.  :-*

Love the conversion and the colors used. It is a very natural pose for the spear lunge too.

Is the parma a 28mm Greek shield or some such? Perfect fit either way.

Coward or not - he looks bloody dangerous.

Very nice converting and painting Nicholas  :)

Arminius looks forward to breaking his spear a second time - and maybe even dealing the coward a fatal blow...

Introducing  Ferox.

Not tested yet in the arena he has mastered the art of the two Gladius fighting style of the Dimacherus.









Converted from the Mrymillo featured on page 4. His arms have been repositioned and his left arm covered in Green Stuff and the Gladius added.

Nicely done, mate!
 8)

It is good to see all these conversions going on.
Who needs variety in sculpts when you can convert your own?
 :D

At this rate, I think we will eventually have all the armatura covered.
Of course, my Dimmo wont be needing that much armour, coz he is proper 'ard!

(Just you wait until you see Gorgeous Georgio!
You will fall in love instantly, knowing you.... ::) :D ;))
