    My latest figure build. A "Lokro Opountio"!


    ΚΙΤ-PREVIEW:
    The figure of the Korean Seil (which has now suspended its operation) represents an Lokro Opountio Private double crest which took part in the battle of Thermopylae, based on original illustrations by Christos Giannopoulos.
    The kit consists of 90 mm by 17 pieces of metal in excellent casting and excellent detail with very good anatomical motion, and includes three heads, two helmets and four crest. The soldier bears linothoraka with metal flaked at the bottom, Corinthian type helmet with two large crest, sword characteristic of Opoundia Lokro and shield

    Great paintjob!!! mayne a littele bit more contrast will be great for themini becaus the intesity of the maxium light and shadow is the same for whole the mini, maybe it is the effect caused by the photo, great work and don't forget the famous topic "MOLON LABE"

    It is a nice painting, only for my opinion it needs just a little bit of shadows to create more contrast and also a little bit of weathering..
