"Tu proximum!"

[Sergey Popovichenko]

Figures from the Mercury Models.
Sculptor Ruslan Vorobyov.
Painting and entourage are mine.
75mm. Resin, gypsum, wood, products and paints AK-Interactive, Vallejo, Abteilung 502
"Tu proximum!"- "You are next!" - says dimakher, pointing at his opponent with a bloody sword. The weapons of the defeated brothers are scattered around after a group duel between two teams of "red" and "blue".
The drawing on the shield is from a real mosaic. One of the authentic gladiator figurines has a shield depicting gladiator duels.
The figurines are removable on pins, the weapons are as removable as the columns. For safe transportation.

Beautifully done with great detail. A work of art.

Excellent again, Sergey!

Rivet counter alert!! The Latin for "you are next! is "tu deinde", not "tu proximum" - That means "you are next (to something)" or "in the proximity of..."!

Sorry to be a pain, but I can hear my old Latin teacher spinning in his grave!!!
