Nice little conversions. One thing...the centurion has no sword in his sheath. Mind you...a shield will cover that up..or is that your plan? Cheers paul
Nice! I like the dynamic pose of the Centurion. Of course the Centurions I model usually come with laser ranging and weapon stabilisation but you're making me consider ancients seriously.

I was casting the lead-mountain around for some personality figures for my legion, and I came across some lovely figures from Aventine's Republican range. Luckily, Roman centurion and the standard-bearer gear didn't change much into the early Imperial era. I've lightly converted these for what I need, by giving them Foundry standards and green-stuff lion skins, and replaced the centurion's leaf-shaped sword with a pilum.

Paul, well spotted; I didn't think of that! Maybe it's sheathed in a German?

I look carefully ;-D
The "sheathed" in a German is a good idea, that´s why he´s picked up the pilum.
