Urban War Retiarius

Next type of units I have recently painted for my Gladiators are Retiarius.
  

Those ones drove me mad during assembly and painting. First impressions was "yesssss, awesome!". But then cleaning them up it became apparent how fragile arms are, and those bendy spears, grrr. While painting faces I just gave up, thanks to their helmets it's really annoying to paint in that area. So I just went with route "fuck that noise, they will have heavy mascara on eyes, and whites of the eyes on that distance would hardly be visible in real life". It fits with how they are armoured, as I choose to paint them as shown in promotional photos with underboobs. It's silly, but whatever. In my book equation style > realism rules above everything else :D.

Urban War Myrmillos

Hello there!

For start, suitable music for what is coming next :D.



Recently I painted some miniatures for the game Urban War, specifically for Gladiators faction. To not batch every single miniature and dump it in single post I will group them in types. As the title of this post suggest, first are Myrmillos.

These were fun to paint, they are my favourites from those which I have painted for this faction. Unfortunately I batch painted them with the rest of miniatures for Gladiators that I have, and the fatigue kicked in. So I didn't finished them with all things that I had planed for them, like additional weathering etc., but oh well. At least I'm done with them :D.
