Completed Germanicus (Soldiers, 54mm)

[Edward]

Hi all, this is my first Roman figure by Adriano Laruccia - the sculpting is amazing, especially the armour. I hope to paint more of his Roman figures in the future! As usual, I used Vallejo and Andrea acrylics. The pot is from El Viejo Dragon, and the plant is photo-etched.

Lovely piece of work Edward and very well presented mate

Lovely work Edward - has a real 'classical' feel to it

ps - if you fancy another Roman I've got a mounted one of JC sitting on the shelf somewhere . . .

After Paul's rendering of a Laruccia masterpiece,another one equally well made.This is a good day after all.

Very well painted and presented.
Having had the good fortune to see a few of Dr. Mike Thomas' superb Roman figures, your figure would not look out of place among them.

Cheers,
Andrew

Looking good mate. I like the face: it has an 'angelic' look

Very nice work.
If you do the shading on his right leg so dark, why don't you that on his left leg.

Hi Marc, it's because of the angle of the legs - his left leg is bent, so the thigh is lighter and below the knee is darker.

An excellent job. Nice to branch out and do others periods etc now and again.

Very good painting work, and nice setting, it is very appropriate.

It's based on a statue of Germanicus

The pose is exactly the same!

 

[Edward]
