Roman Civilians

A few months ago I purchased 10 Roman Civilians from Matakishi.com - I wanted some minis to represent the characters in our Cthulhu Invictus RPG, and these were cheap and showed a lot of different types. I think I will be able to use them in future home brewed scenarios for Broken Legions as well.

Judging from the images of the painted minis I was unsure about the quality of the sculpts, and I must admit that I was not pleasantly surprised. These are among the worst sculpts that I have painted. The details are minimal and often the feet and hands are just lumps of meat. This meant that I had to exaggerate some of the highlighting compared to my normal painting style.

Once they were painted and based they look alright I think. But having just finished painting my Parthians from Aventine the difference in sculpt quality is huge. Still it is a cheap deal and they will size wise blend in with Crusader, Aventine, Warlord etc.

So not highly recommended but still recommended for the value for money.

For the pictures I tried to make it look like nighttime.
