Dear Friends of Planet
Here my last Realization for Romeo Models.......
The subject is a ITALIC WARRIOR (OSCAN WARRIOR FROM ITALIAN CENTRAL HIGHLANDS) IV-IV sec. b.C.
The scale is 54 milimeter and also this News will be in Preview to the Manifestation of Kulmbach.
Naturally the Painting is of Danilo..... and the Historical Search are realized from Stefano Castracane

Good Vision to all MAB :)


OSCAN WARRIOR
They figure is inspired to the statue of the "Guerriero di Capestrano", recovered in Abruzzi, near the Aquila, on the river They pull, and currently conserved in National the Archaeological Museum of Chieti, taking advantage itself also of recovered others reperti coevi in the region (of which many relati to you to situated Alfedena on the Sangro river) when not otherwise specified. The armor is typical of the italici guerrieri of the Appennine area, language osco-sabella, or sannitica. Those people list themselves between these who had to face the first expansions of Rome, between YOU and the III sec. A.C., which Vestini (own of the area of ritrovamento of the statue), Frentani, Marrucini, Marsi, Peligni, Ernici, Volsci, Carecini, Pentri, Pretuzi, but also Piceni, Umbri, Sabini, Fair, Sidicini, Caudini, Irpini, Inhabitants of campania let alone Lucani and Sanniti in kind. The territory impervio in which they lived or they attracted the Roman, where were difficult to maintain an order locked for the falange, before, and the testudo then, made that these guerrieri, (even ally with Celti and Etruschi) and their dynamic way to you to fight, as an example rendered the wars of expansion as they demonstrated to all the italiche wars, like the sannitiche wars with the Caudine Passes hard. Because of guerrieri it was armed like this, that we could define "battleships to the light one", than the Roman had to modify their way to fight, abandoning the falange oplitica and passing to "I manipulate". Some authors think quite that the alignment to manipulate was from these inspired if not copied.

Excellent.
In a previous thread i sayed that i have to find one more job , to make more money to buy all those beuatifull figure's.
But now i have to change my mind. I need to find two job's where i don't have to work for the money, because the only thing is that i must have money and time for buying and painting all those excellent figures.
