Hi firends and have a nice and good year .

It will be pretty good in figures also as it has started nicely .

I post below a sneak preview of the latest creation of Planet Figure Member Maurizzio Bruno for Romeo Models from Italy.

This is a Geeek Oplite " Siceliota" in 54 mm

Dated V sec. a.C. with Tracian Helmet

ROMEO will release this in January .

The sculpture is a very "clean " one , with perfect anatomy , and recreation of the "muscle scheme" thorax and all other details . This is a joy for a painter

I only have to say that i am really impressed seeing the master Sculptor of Napoleonics doing such a super fine work in his first Ancient Greek figure . I really hope that Maurizio will surprise us in the same way many many times.

He is one of the best sculptors in the business and a very very good guy . This is definately in my wish list , and absolutely on the top of it .


Thanks a lot Maurizio .

Costas,
thanks for posting. This is a beautiful figure. Maurizzio is the master of detail in 54mm, and this looks to be no exception. His Napoleonics are masterful, it's wonderfull to see him moving to other subjects.

Lovely work on the muscled cuirass Maurizio but I think it's much too defined and the details are wrong for this date. The feet look very good - two difficult things to sculpt.

Nice to see the bunching at the shoulders of the chiton (y)

For Einion the armor laughed them from one image represented in a Greek vase of the 460 BC. and I have just represented this image that made part of the supplied documentation me

I'm not a big fan of 54mm's, Maurizio, but this piece is extremely tempting!!! A fantastic sculpt with wonderful detail! Thank you for sharing it with us - I believe it will be on many people's wish list (probably mine, too).

Oh yeah, can't wait to see it painted!

Thanks again,
Nancy
 
Way to go Maurizio on this great piece of sculpting. This one will be ordered as soon as it's available on the market. Bravo MAB. Also for some members here, they should know before comment on anything they thing it is not accurate.

Thanks but are not a problem understood to all.

And beautiful to receive it compliments and and also beautiful to receive critics
or points of view, I task that this forum serves to one fundamental what.... to the learning and the communication therefore that very it comes all.

I make excuses myself if my English is much articulating, if my speech is not understood I put the translation in Italian hoping that someone can clear if they have been misinterpreted.

Grazie ma non è un problema capita a tutti.

E bello ricevere complimenti ed e anche bello ricevere critiche
o punti di vista, io penso che questi forum servano ad una cosa fondamentale .... all'apprendimento ed alla comunicazione quindi che ben venga tutto.

Mi scuso se il mio inglese è molto articolato, se non si capisce il mio discorso metto la traduzione in italiano sperando che qualcuno possa chiarire se sono stato frainteso .

Maurizio :)
 
:eek: I saw this on the homepage and ASSUMED it was at least 90mm just because of the level of detail. Then I saw the scale, and was amazed. Then I read who the sculptor was and everything made sense. Of course. Ancient Greeks have never really been my "cup of tea" but, I can see myself getting this figure.

Thanks for posting,

Hi Maurizio, your figure literally fall from heaven, right now I'm reading the book on "Arms and Armor of the Greeks by Anthony M. Snodgrass", which I highly recommended. Your figure came at the right time¡¡¡¡¡ :lol:
