Lee Lygiros
Gurnee, Illinois
To make Young Miniatures’ 1/10 scale Spartan bust look like King Leonidas must have near the end of the Battle of Thermopylae, Lee dented the helmet, breastplate, and shield and drilled holes in the shield for arrow shafts. He painted the cape and hair with Model Master acrylics, and everything else was finished with Vallejo acrylics. He picked up the model on a visit to the battlefield.
