One of my favorite movies is still Jason and the Argonauts, released way back in 1963. And my favorite scene of course is the climax of the movie featuring the Ray Harryhausen stop-motion skeletons. A few years ago I bought some Wargames Factory Skeletons to try and replicate the skeletons from that scene. Assembling these models was a painful experience. Even once assembled, they are extremely fragile. However, I think they are the best-looking skeletons on the market. I dipped them a few weeks ago and bought some Peddinghaus Decals 1/72 Greek Shield Emblems EP1168 for the Greek shields. I finished them up with flock two weeks ago.

Great work! The shields look fantastic with them. The designs are freehand, right?

I also love the skeletons from that movie.

Bye bye Dakkadakka, happy hobbying! I really enjoyed my time on here. Opinions were always my own :-)

There is not this idea.

They really do look like the skeletons from the movie! Excellent stuff.

They look really cool almost like I'm watching the movie again ( that's a plan for this afternoon).

Any chance of a size comparison pic?

Fantastic work, and I agree, Jason and the Argonauts is a great film.

It is currently inspiring my own Greek forces for Saga (or Epic as I heard someone else call it). Black and gold armor for the Hearthguard.

On time, on target, or the next one's free
