Thanks guys, the hardest things gonna be the boots, any ideas?
Oh and a head, the straps seem pretty straight forward and a basic skirt, just with basic strips of leather laid over the body he looks pretty sweet.

Looking at pictures of Tigris, he seems to be wearing leather boots. Maybe something like this could work?

Another possibility is to sculpt the boots, with the armor attached?

Re: Gladiator Tigris updated again pg9

He's definitely wears boots, almost looks like fury toes too in some shots, I wouldn't like the sculpted option as I'd like to keep the pose ability

Here's a better pic on the body.... Every things just sort of laying there but still you get a good idea of proportions I may fill out the gut on my figure if I can make it look natural... You can also see the vambrace as well

Thnx mate, the only thing is the plate skirt, may rethink it, want it to be more flexible

you may could cast individual rows & maybe split those in half and then glue all that to a cloth type material??......just a thought.

Re: Gladiator Tigris updated again p12

Sure thing, I'm still rethinking the armor skirt at the moment, will update when I have a solution so tempted for separate plates
