Completed Spartan Hoplite-Scale 75

Christos · Jan 11, 2011

Hello,
This is my version of scale75's spartan.
Painted with acrylics, except the metallic parts where I used oils and inks.
I reworked the crest and made some hair with magic+duro putty.
Photos are not quite good because the shield makes diffcult for me to shoot the basic body of the figure properly.
Anyway I 'm happy with the result, any comments are always welcome!

That's gorgeous. Is the shield freehand?

A beautiful piece. Exceptional work all around.

Oh man that is outstanding. I wanted to do a shield design on mine but if I did I couldn't call him Leonidas. I sure wish I had done a design now after looking how great yours is. The hair is a great idea and looks awesome, the blood splatter on the fist is brilliant. Fantastic work sir.

Hi Christos,
outstanding paint job!!! An excellent shield, very suitable for this figure. Love also the flesh tones and how you painted all those muscles, just wow. It is a showstopper, my friend! My biggest compliments.

Thanks for commenting,
shield is painted with free hand, and it is specific, showing the descend of the hoplite.It is not from a spartan mora-regiment.

Madly, truly authentic. From the red to flesh to the metal, a superstar of a paint job.

Did they really bare their privates back then?
