The faces on your Celts are very realistic, great work on the eyes! The arrayed formation of Roman shields are very eye-catching, this is shaping up nicely!

They look very nice indeed.

Well done for getting the eyes right.

They enhance the tribesmen in my opinion.

It is difficult skill and a mistake makes the rest of one’s efforts look like a cartoon caricature.

Keep up the good work.

Best wishes,

Chris

Thanks you guys for the positive comments. it's a push for doing always better :-D

the work is going on !!

the semi-testudo is completed

and here is a jumping briton ..... why ? ....

Image

probably quite fueled by alcohol or mushrooms, he decides to win the battle alone jumping from the walls onto the shields wall

Image

Image

Image

in the meantime, other britons are ready for another surprise for the advancing column...

More fine images of Romans and Britons. The Briton 'hero' jumping on top of the testudo is a very nice and imaginative touch....hopefully he will survive?!

Keep up the good work.... :yeah: :-D

I love the detail of the Briton jumping on the testudo, very typical of those bold Cetls. :-)

And I don't think the Romans are going to be too happy about the surprise the Britons have prepared for them from the tower above the entrance gate. :mrgreen:

Another geat advance in your project, Enrico. Go on with it! :thumbup:

Nice progress on the diorama.
That Briton on the testudo: that's how crowd surfing was invented.
thanks for sharing and keep up that good work.
