Re: Share Your Greek Artwork - hoplite14gr - 10-31-2007 Corinthians depicted their allies also in their vases. This person is a hoplite of the Mora of Sparta proper carring avariation of the Chalkiokos Athena "Gorgoneion". Kind regards Re: Share Your Greek Artwork - dimgall - 10-31-2007 Hello Stefanos .thanks for the reply and suggestion!!! Re: Share Your Greek Artwork - Giannis K. Hoplite - 11-01-2007 Hehe,gioi,what do I see there?Your beloved "ear" corinthian? And it's ok you turned the hoplites to the right,but now the mountain is the opposite than real Thermopylae( and for God's sake,why do all artists copy Connolly even in the landskapes) but also they're now holding their shields with the right hand Khaire Giannis Re: Share Your Greek Artwork - dimgall - 11-02-2007 thanks for the warm welcome Gioi!!!nice to be here!!!so much info take care Re: Share Your Greek Artwork - hoplite14gr - 11-02-2007 Well Gioi the "thalassa" you mentioned is wrong if the image is supposed to depict Thermopylae but "corrects" if depicts operations in the Thracian or Ionian coast. If the second factor applies even shield devices are correct!!! Kind regards Re: Share Your Greek Artwork - Giannis K. Hoplite - 11-02-2007 The thing,Stefane,is the the mountain behind is indeed thermopylae Re: Share Your Greek Artwork - Giannis K. Hoplite - 11-02-2007 Thanks Gioi,very much!I had only few of them and not in so good resolution.Very good painting,though slightly inaccurate in some points. Khaire Giannis Re: Share Your Greek Artwork - Craig Gascoigne - 11-04-2007 Gioi Thanks all this art work is wonderful thanks for sharing it Craig G Re: Share Your Greek Artwork - dimgall - 11-22-2007 hello friends i just finished this hoplite and i want to make a label for it .so i ask the masters here Stefanos and the other people.Can i label him as a "DORIEAS HEGEMONAS"?any help will be apreciated . Re: Share Your Greek Artwork - dimgall - 11-22-2007 last photos thanks for your time Re: Share Your Greek Artwork - hoplite14gr - 11-23-2007 Nicely made Archaic Arkadian leader. His shield device excludes the possibility of being Dorean. Was a sword included in the kit? Kind regards Re: Share Your Greek Artwork - dimgall - 11-23-2007 Thanks Stefanos !!!no sword in the kit. Re: Share Your Greek Artwork - hoplite14gr - 11-23-2007 If you scratch build ti then the longer version of the hoplite sword fits the period. Best... Re: Share Your Greek Artwork - Giannis K. Hoplite - 11-23-2007 Ver very nice. One of the few times I like the boeotean shield(perhaps because I see an orignal device found in olympia?). Only one flaw and this is not Dimitris' fault. The crest should be transverse. I have seen it like this some times and this is because the sculpture from the Siphnian treasure it was designed after is a bit confusing. Khaire Giannis Re: Share Your Greek Artwork - dimgall - 11-24-2007 thanks Giannis!!!can you post a picture of that sculpture from the sifnian treasure? |
