Willie gave me this guy. He already had a basic paint job, so I stuck with it and went for the bright and bold look. Except for the shield, for which I acquired a template (I can't remember the company's name), and then I worked from that. He is 95mm from toe to the top of his crest, and on the base is written "Benassi 1980". I don't usually do large figures like this one, so he is a bit of a one-off. We'll use him to show who has the initiative at Plataea.
He isn't overly muscled as can be the case with more recent models, and the detailing is smooth rather than complex. I enjoyed this as a bit of change from the usual, though.
