Back from the annual holiday in the West of Britannia (where bronzing oil was essential) The house of Malamutius Calvus has invested in its first Gladiator, Astinax the Myrmillo:

Astinax is a 40mm Battle Honours figure and will soon be competing in the arena against Gladiators from the House of Bibbles The Flos using Furt's new Blood on the Sands rules. An AAR of our first encounter will follow soon.

....the House of Bibbles The Flos

That sounds pretty scary to me, like a Roman knocking shop or something.

Lovely! I always thought Battle Honours' gladiators looked a little skinny and stretched but that myrmillo looks the business

Particularly nice shield

Nicely done.

40mm though? Not try to compensate for something are you...

Awesome paint job Malamutius! Waiting for the AAR.
Although I always liked Gladiators I thought Gladiator fighting must be pretty boring.But with the rules of Furt it seems I might be wrong.

Not sure about that.
When I did a little digging, I git the following for Flos:
flora, floral, floret, floriculture, florid, floriferous, floriform, florist, floruit, flourish, inflorescence.

Bibbles the Floral?

Seemed appropriate after yesterday Biibles was seem embracing Southern tendencies he would usually scorn.
