Title: GREEK WARRIORS
Post by: cowabounga on May 08, 2012, 20:23:31: Hey!
Last post tonight, to introduce you my other Greek warriors. I only got the helmets from Malone, though he also does the shields, but they can't be hung on the back, so I chose to use the regular (old) Playmo round shield. I'm not sur which will be the definite version for these. As you can see, I used tanned and pale bodies, two shades of metal for the helmets, and different shoes and shoulder belts. I even did some weathering on one of the helmets, not sure I'll keep it this way.
Anyway, here are Panos, George, Agelos and Alex, the Greek warriors! :lol: :lol: :lol:

@grangel: I was hoping you'd like their names! ;)
@playmo1989: I think you can be one of the pale ones, since you live in NY, not shiny Greece. ,)

Post by: Gyps on August 11, 2012, 22:04:05: I absolutely love these - what a great job you've done! If we all pretend to be Greek, does that mean we can persuade you to make more of these? ;)
Title: Re: GREEK WARRIORS
Post by: cowabounga on August 12, 2012, 06:54:39: Thanks guys!
@Gyps: I only have 6 of those helmets, so every member can't pretend he/she's Greek!
