Re: Share Your Greek Artwork - hoplite14gr - 02-23-2008 I would love to see Albert's interpetation of the thunderbolt casting Heros on the shield. Kind regards Re: Share Your Greek Artwork - Albert G Lopez - 02-24-2008 Quote:I would love to see Albert's interpetation of the thunderbolt casting Heros on the shield. I will do some research on this. Hopefully I can come up with a good design. Re: Share Your Greek Artwork - Zenodoros - 02-24-2008 Those are beautiful sketches, Albert! Giannis' coloured versions are very nice too.

Start here: http://www.theoi.com/Ouranios/Eros.html Substitute wreith with thunderbolt like: http://www.theoi.com/Gallery/K1.1.html It was supposed to be golde Eros on ivory shield according to Plutarch Good luck! Kind regards P.S. Do you have samples of your work online? Re: Share Your Greek Artwork - Giannis K. Hoplite - 02-24-2008 Haha,Stefane,of all Erotes in Greek art,I pointed Albert to that same Eros from the same vase! Is that a coincidence? Maybe not,it's one of the best Erotes and the stance would fit to the purpose Albert would need it. And yet another coincidence,I also pointed him to vases of ZXeus from the exact same site that you posted!!! :lol: Khaire Giannis Re: Share Your Greek Artwork - dimgall - 03-22-2008 hello people! just a figure i finished a while ago i made the emblem of megara hoplite. Re: Share Your Greek Artwork - dimgall - 03-22-2008 last ones thanks for looking. Re: Share Your Greek Artwork - Strategos - 03-22-2008 Looks very good! And its very detailed, which scale has this figure? Is it a Metal figure (it looks like one)? Thanks for posting these pictures, great work! Kind regards Strategos Re: Share Your Greek Artwork - dimgall - 03-22-2008 http://www.romeomodels.com/product_info ... fcf2571a10 its that kit with a different crest from another kit thanks for the comments!!! Re: Share Your Greek Artwork - Giannis K. Hoplite - 03-22-2008 Good work. I see you went with a leather linothorax. Or broun leather linothorax. I like the job on the shield. Khaire Giannis Re: Share Your Greek Artwork - dimgall - 03-22-2008 thanks Giannis.glad you like it. Re: Share Your Greek Artwork - hoplite14gr - 03-23-2008 Well done. Initially the shield device was for the Megarean aristocrats but at a later time perhaps it was carried only by the Megarean General. This typo of fighter might have been in Platea or the less well know repulse of a Persian raid at 480 B.C. at the same time as Salamis. Kind regards Re: Share Your Greek Artwork - Kallimachos - 03-24-2008 Really good work Dimitrios, thanks for sharing Re: Share Your Greek Artwork - Zenodoros - 03-24-2008 Whoa, that's fantastic Demetrios. Nice work, as usual! Looking at the Romeo site, it's a little frustrating to see that most people have the idea that only the Lokrians had double or triple crested helmets. Why is this misinformation so widely regarded as fact? Is it because of Christos Gianopoulos' artwork? Re: Share Your Greek Artwork - dimgall - 03-24-2008 thanks Stefanos,Kalimachos for the nice words and information!!! Zenodoros thanks for the comments.i ve seen in pottery many polemarchoi had 2 or three crests . |
