ROMA VICTRIX - Plastic Early Imperial Romans
« on: 01 April 2017, 02:21:56 PM »
The postie had a parcel from Victrix for me today...yay!
This means all my numerous other projects are on hold for the foreseeable future as I'll be putting my sandals on...





I know what I'll be doing over the next weeks that's for sure  ;)

More soon.

Quick as ever, and bloody brilliant. Under your gritty, realistic painting style, the figure looks even better than in the raw.

The Victrix figure looks like a Rolls-Royce between a couple of old Ford Cortinas...

People might still moan about plastic figures, and I'm quick enough to criticise the ones who get it wrong with poor sculpting and stingy components. But my God, when they get it right, like this, you'd have to be blind to not realise what a massive step up in quality it represents compared with the typical metal figure.

Anyone hear anything about the Victrix Roman auxilia? It would be nice if arms could be exchanged between the legionaries and the auxilia, so legionaries in mail and scale could be created.

Outstanding! Lovely paint job.

Christ on a bike those Voldemort Games Romans are dwarf-like. They've excelled themselves in the shitness of their sculpting.
