Quote:Hello guys,That scene is incredible! I especially love the confused looking barbarian in the lower left.
Here is small contribution to the topic;
It is one of the few commisioned drawings for an exhibition about Japodi (Yapides) organised by Archaeological museum from Zagreb. It depicts Octavian’s siege of Metulum ( Japod "capital"). Have to admit - I enjoyed working for this project, especially having an expert’s guidance and advise in the process. Unfortunatelly there was not enough time to do this one completely as I intended to, but anyway - the result is here, and I hope Youll like it.

John1: That's some great art too! There's a strong feeling of speed and power there. My only question would be, where is the soldier's right arm? It would be impossible to hold a scutum like that. If you turned the shield through 45 degrees it would probably be fine though.
