Thrash Posted April 20, 2009 Posted April 20, 2009 Here's a little vignette I put together today of some gladiators fighting in the Colosseum: The gladiators fight to the death: While Ceasar enjoys his wine: Ceasar: Legionnaire: Mace-weilding Gladiator. I really like this new weapon from brickforge, so I created this gladiator to use it. As far as I know, he is not historically accurate at all: Scissor Gladiator. This guy on the other hand I did try to make historically accurate. I was extremely pleased with how he turned out...especially the scissor arm part: Scissor Gladiator Reference Picture: Enjoy!

Sandy Posted April 20, 2009 Posted April 20, 2009 Great job with the decals and getting the overall mood just spot on! The other gladiator is totally Kratos, by the way. Quote
Klaus-Dieter Posted April 20, 2009 Posted April 20, 2009 That's an absolutely awesome vignette, Thrash! I really it! The architecture looks great and the minifigs are awesome! It looks perfect! The minifigs are designed perfectly - the most I like the legionnaire. They might well be an archetype for some official Lego minifigures! After a new Western theme a Roman theme would be absolutely amazing (if it doesn't include too much fantasy elements)! Very, very well done! :thumbup: Klaus-Dieter Quote
Fishy Posted April 20, 2009 Posted April 20, 2009 Thrash, this looks fantastic! Great work on it! Now, if you could make an entire Colosseum.. That would be even more amazing. Anyway, great job on this. Quote
Captain Blackmoor Posted April 22, 2009 Posted April 22, 2009 Awesome work again Trash! Your decals are very good as well. You did a great job making decals and using BrickForge weapons combined with real LEGO. Ceasar looks cool too. Quote
I Scream Clone Posted April 22, 2009 Posted April 22, 2009 A really nice Colosseum vignette you have there Thrash, great custom figures and I can definitely feel the mood of the whole piece. Well done! Quote
diabloiij Posted April 22, 2009 Posted April 22, 2009 oh very nice, i especially love the weapons. are the shields from brickforge too? Quote
hewkii9 Posted April 22, 2009 Posted April 22, 2009 (edited) Very nice, I really like all the tooth plates [and the fact that the 'realistic' gladiator looks like the most fantasy one ]. Edited April 22, 2009 by hewkii9 Quote
gogobig Posted April 23, 2009 Posted April 23, 2009 Thrash, I absolutely love your MOC. Thus far it is my favorite vignette and I have seen hunderds of them. Your minifigs are brilliant. I do a lot of customizing myself, but it is no match for what you have done. Mad props for you. Keep it comming. Quote
Batbrick Posted April 23, 2009 Posted April 23, 2009 Brilliant creation Thrash, I love the gladiator Colosseum construction, even the mixing of bley and grey adds a neat touch. The seat with Ceaser is great too, but the real eye candy here is those minifigs. Fantastic job on them, my favourite is the scissor gladiator, quite accurate to that pic. Batbrick Away! Quote
TLV Posted April 26, 2009 Posted April 26, 2009 the amount of customisation and detail in your vignette is amazing. I like your custom figs and torsos. the use of the agents series arm is a really neat idea. Quote
Thrash Posted April 28, 2009 Author Posted April 28, 2009 Wow, thanks for all of the nice comments guys! I thought a few people might enjoy this when I made it, but I had no idea you guys would like it this much! It was a lot of fun to make...maybe in the future I'll get around to making a bigger Colosseum with some more gladiators. And yes, the shields are from brickforge. ~Thrash Quote
supertoad64 Posted May 21, 2009 Posted May 21, 2009 really cool figs! really like the scissor arm and how hardcore the torsos look. i wish tlc would make some like these! Quote
