I love love love the models for Arena Rex. I don’t get the play the game much, and frankly some of the models are finicky enough to make for bad game pieces. But they’re so beautiful I can’t help myself.

Aquila really highlights the Roman qualities of Legio XIII. After using the red-purples on Dark Carnival, I thought it would work well here as a slightly muted, older looking red.

Ban-Luca fortunately had a metal spear, so I didn’t have to deal with the droopy resin spear of some Arena Rex models. It was still difficult to line up.

Gaius has more earthy feel, and gets a skin tone to match. I’m not sure I’m happy with the vines on his leg, but the rest turned out well enough.

This gets me nearly to three playable factions (Zephyri, Gorgons, and Legio XIII). I should probably put some down in front of somebody and demand they play with me.
