Hi! A step into Greek mythology, with this Cyclops who will be played as a Monster in my Mythologic Greek army. Cyclops by Dark Alliance.

Size comparison with actual 1/72 hoplite (manufacturer: Caesar):

Hope you like him :)

Very nice paint work as always!

I love these figures. Bought some for my 2e AD&D/BattleSystem games. They paint up really nice, easy, and fast. Enough detail, without being a PITA.

Nice work. Thanks for sharing. Cheers!

The coolest, ugliest cuss I've ever seen!

Thank your for your kind comments, and yes, you should paint them, take pictures and show us the result! I love to see several versions of the same minis, it's a good way to discover nice color schemes that I couldn't even imagine :)

@Sgt Slag: after reading some of the your last posts, I could find pictures of your own Cyclops – nice result, I like them. Which rules do you use to play them ? HOTT ?

I haven't blooded them, yet. Planning to use them in my next 2e BattleSystem game, to supplement some Hill, Stone, and Fire Giants. Haven't stat'ed them out yet. Will likely make them similar to Hill Giants – maybe. There were some 1e AD&D Cyclops, I'll see if those translate well, or I'll make their stats up to fit my game. With AD&D/BattleSystem, I can do what I like. Nothing crazy, hopefully fun, though. Cheers!
