I wasn’t sure what to post next until I saw Eric’s (ericritter65) recent post of some fine Gladiators that made it easy, I would pop up some mini ones I did just weeks ago.
The figures I used; Italeri 6062, Pegasus 7100, and Ultima Ratio ur013. These are the three best set in my opinion but if you wanted more the next best ones would come from Orion 72005.
Not much to say but it’s good to be back!! Cheers Pat.

Thanks mate, not something I thought I would end up doing but then again I originally swore I would never do any fantasy stuff! Then I said I would never try and paint anything larger than 1/72, and yet I just purchased some 1/35 figures 😳wow I thought afterwards, that’s a bit ambitious as your not great at 1/72 , what the hell the lads will be forgiving even if It goes pear shaped but at least I tried it 😅😅👍🏻

Veni, vedi, vici! These look great, Pat! I’ve been a fan of Roman History for many years so this is certainly welcomed by me. The little one might be the best of the triad. It really tells a story!

Thanks Jeff, your right about it being an interesting time in history, I just read a great novel about the Teutoburg Forrest battle , it gave me a greater insight, shame I didn’t read it before I did the diorama of it years ago 😕. I agree that little one is so well modelled though it was a bugger to put together 😅😅.
