Featured Miniature #6

Mycenaean Greek 15mm from Old Glory.  I painted many of these in authentic style, then I saw the "Troy" movie and took a liking to the Hollywood-hip black/grey/bronze outfits. 

There are a few figures in this collection that are wearing the "Dendra Panoply", which is a big bronze trashcan of armor and is very cool.  It seems that the armor was so heavy the wearers would ride a chariot to their spot in the battle, then get out and fight, making them the first armored mobile infantry in the world!
