Hello everyone,
I would like to present to your attention my Ancient Thracians line of figures to the moment.
Because of peoples requests to show my full line of Ancient Thracians I will post here some pictures of my previous work on that line.
Just would like to post something else, regarding my inspiration to sculpt my last Thracian- the Odrisian Nobleman , something from Titus Livius:
Livy [ Liv. 42. 59. 2] wrote: “First and foremost the Thracians, like wild beasts that have been kept caged for a long time, attacked with such a frenzy and such a violent roar the right wing, where the Italics cavalry were fighting, that the latter, known as a people fearless by nature and steeled in battles, were thrown into confusion and dismay.” Roman casualties in this fight amounted to ca. 2000 infantrymen and 200 horsemen, and ca. 600 warriors were taken prisoners-of-war; Perseus lost 40 foot soldiers and 20 cavalrymen. A particularly imposing scene must have represented the Thracians on their way back to the camp - carrying the heads of the killed enemies impaled on their lances, triumphantly singing a paean [Liv. 42. 60. 1-2; Plut. Ает. Paul. 9; Flor. 1. 28]
All figures where sculpted on the basis of existing archeological finds, museum artefacts and ancient historian texts and paintings.
All figures available in 54mm, 75mm;
90mm and bigger on request
Can be ordered directly from me:
