Is this the dio we talked about at the London show? I'm just trying to picture how these two figs are going to face off

Yes! This is the one!
It is an imminent clash between them, with the roman having the higher ground. It is a snapshot of the battle of the Metaurus (207 BC).

That's the one I was thinking of... with the stepped base.

Absolutely beautiful this piece, love the metals, how did you go about them?
The skin tones look fab also!
I'm drooling !

Thank you! Much appreciated!
For the metals I used 3 techniques:
Helmet, breast plate, back plate and greaves: burnished the metal and applied vandyke and burnt sienna oil paints. Highlights with printers ink.
Puggio: Humbrol Metal Coat. When was dry, buffed with paper towel. Highlights with Model Master Chrome Silver.
Falcata and Shield boss: Black acrylic base. Falcata: Oily Steel acrylic. When was dry, applied a wash with paynes grey oil paint. Highlights with MM Chrome Silver. Shield Boss: Brass acrylic. I applied, strait from the tube, vandyke oil paint and blended with a dry brush. Highlights with printers ink.
Hope that it helps.
Cheers,
Zeno
