Roman Praetorian Guardsman

[MSea]

Sorry Haddock  but I am doing another figure.  I seem to be back into the type of modelling I did when I was at sea.
This one is another MiniArt 1/16 scale figure and just for Bill this one has a skirt on.
Reading up on them, the guard  killed more Emperors than they protected and at the time they were classed as a byword for corruption/greed/bribery ---- it sounds just like the club committee - hohohohoho

I look forward to this, I have one of these!

[Haddock]

Look forward to seeing this take shape.

Most of the main parts fitted together. Now who does the head look like ?

Hi Msea,
Can't be me, he looks much more handsome than me.........
Cheers,
Bigkev

He does look a bit grumpy though, is it me?

[MSea]

I am saying NOTHING -- I can get myself into enough trouble without saying anything.

[Haddock]

Like the way the mouth droops at one side, is this to hold a fag?
Haddock.

[MSea]

Thanks Haddock he now has a name, its "Maximus Cigarellus"  -- they are only bits of plastic until they have a name and a back story.

[MSea]

A start made on blocking in the main colours of "Maximus" legs and uniform.

[zak]

Here are similar ones that I built, quite a while ago. Excuse the dust!

[MSea]

Excellent -- if I can get to 20% of your level with this one I will be happy.

[MSea]

Sword scabbard drilled and cleaned out and the first coat of paint on the head and armour.

[MSea]

Some more detail added to bits and bobs.

[MSea]

Legs skirt and body added together. Also some work done on the face.
