Took an entire photo set with black background, then found this background labeled Sparta and it printed as a full size sheet
From what I read, Sparta was a collection of small villages, not a big centralized city

Deleted all initial photos and retook them with the background….SO much better!

    Painting the cloaks are one of my favourite parts. I
    may have a go at another figure that has an awesome purple cloak

      Awesome result - especially on the cloak & fleshtones; great photography with the backdrop too - sets him off nicely and looks really atmospheric
