Looks a very nice figure!

Maybe the difficult is how much 'skin colour' you have to paint on it :eek:

Will be looking ;)

Well he's now finished and as was said all that skin was a problem but I did the best I could and found it to be a big learning curve so I have taken something out of this gladiator to be taken into my next figure I would like to do another at some point someone wanted blood on the finished model and I didn't want to disappoint so blooded he is. Anyways lots learned here's the pics thanks for looking and any comments cheers everyone regards John View attachment 79760

That looks superb, the metal work looks outstanding-lifelike. I think the flesh tones are spot on, great detailing and shading. I would love to have created this and think you have made it to a very high standard so well done.

That is very good john the skin tones are spot on and that little bit of blood on the floor tops it off a treat.
