If I were creating Pendraken I wouldn't mess about with Romans and  Mongols  I would have started with Centurions , eight o'clock, Day One!

That looks great against a real background. I too had to look twice.

Is that really a model? What scale?

Absolutely stunning. A fine example of the model-maker's art.  =D>

Have to agree a stunning model.
Is the shore part of the model or has it been photo shopped in? still brilliant.
But its strange that your eye can still pick out the human models, no matter how well constructed and painted, shows how well constructed we are. ;)

From the photos on the FB page you can see the shore is modelled

"Outstanding" is the comment coming to mind.  You can just about see "the join" in the green plastic tropical folage and the browner temperate grass of the real background.  But the attention to detail in the model's  tide marked shoreline simply beggars belief. The lighting is very clever.  Is it natural?

First Nic, now this.  Think I'll throw my brushes away.
I have neither the time nor the crayons to explain why you are wrong.
