Elephants and sarissas

[MABO]

This is going to be a great dio. Your transformation of the elephant is amazing. I will follow your next steps closely.

Thanks Ben90, thanks Mabo !

My goodness, Enrico, that piece alone would make a magnificent vignette. I love both the detailed creation process and the fantastic end result, with such incredible painting.

Of course, everyone is feeling sorry for the elephant, but what about the poor pikeman who was thrown into the air, eh? I feel less sorry for the two occupants of the tower, as I see their immediate future as less threatened.

Fantastic progress, my friend!

[MABO]

Never forget the poor pikemen!

[Iceman1964]

Thanks Mabo, thanks Santi, now I realize I forgot one important detail: the parachute for the pikeman

[MABO]

I am not sure if you mixed the periods of history...

[Iceman1964]

... and also the second elephant is completed, this pose is much more "standard" than the previous one

now missing few skirmishers and the final diorama assembly

[MABO]

Your "standard" looks really super!

[Ochoin]

Great work. The hide in particular looks very authentic.

Thanks Mabo, thanks Donald

[Ben90]

Wonderful paintjob. Can not wait to see the diorama!

[Iceman1964]

Thanks Ben, I'm quite near the completion of the soldiers, here are some skirmishers and infantry that will be back of the elephants, to unzip the phalanx with the chaos created by the beasts

[Santi Pérez]

Enrico, it's clear that, once you had finished the first elephant with such a superb result, you didn't want the second one to feel envious of it, so you made it just as superb. And the foot soldiers, although a little less spectacular, are not far behind.
