I just got this set of Conte Gladiators and made this little backdrop to take a photo...these are pretty nice figures...really good sculpts...

Mike, just a history/military note. The weapon in the gladiator's hand, with the gladius and forearm at his feet, is a PUGIO. Although it is a pugio on massive amounts of steroids... It was the equivalent of a Roman side-arm... Andy (pugio)

Michael, I really like the cartoon effect - always have in everything you have ever presented in this format. However, I particularly like how the gladiators and your arena turned out as cartoons - really very nice . . .
