SPQR/61 "MAXIMUS, 180 aD."
200mm. Resin Bust
Sculpture: Hyunji Kim
Box Art: Alexandre Cortina

In Soviet Russia, Russel Crowe miniaturises you...in Catalonia they clearly shrunk Russel Crowe

Very nice sculpt but exposure to Maximus has been maximized.

I'll pick all the fire regarding this miniature - but it's just my opinion, good guys.

While the face is unbelievably well achieved (and here, also stunningly well painted), I think the sculpting in the wolf's fur is too soft: This scale is absolutely unforgiving - either all textures are in the miniature or once with a paint coat it will look a bit toyish.

But yes - the face is amazing!!!

Time to ask Kev to make a side by side review

Maybe it's just me, but....
Certainly the first photo looks 75% Russell Crowe / 25% Tom Hanks.
Feel free to either agree or call me crazy.....

Wheels, you're not alone, in my opinion, they've not quite captured Russell Crowe, but its a good face all the same.

I agree guys on the Russell Crowe's resemblance. It is quite close from the profile but not on the other angles unfortunately.

Another Roman general, ......... ah no, but if it's the same as always.

Military miniatures painted by Eduardo Garcia

IMHO - this is a great portrait of the young Russel Crowe, as he was in Gladiator movie

I already have the Young Miniatures version of this bust. Had this one come out on its own, I might have bought it, however the Young bust is superior in my opinion. The box art painting on this bust in phenomenal.

Agreed Young version has better "anatomy" with the head look sideway... Master Young amazing bust posture is unbeatable... Bought Young version too! This figure is great too honestly....
