Supports have already been removed and surfaces cleaned, so you can get straight to the hobby the moment it lands on your doorstep. The model measures 32mm from feet to eyes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis figure cuts an imposing silhouette. She strides forward with a long blade raised in her right hand and a broad ornate shield held firm in her left, its face etched with a laurel wreath emblem. A banner pole rises from her back, topped with a skull finial and a tattered parchment scroll, marking her as both warrior and standard-bearer. Her hair flows loose beneath a laurel crown, and her layered plate armour carries fleur-de-lis belt fittings and segmented greaves. The scenic base is richly detailed with inscribed stone tiles, guttering candles, and scattered skulls, bringing the entire piece to life even before a drop of paint is applied. Sculpted by DakkaDakka, this figure is a proud addition to the Legio Artemis range.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe kit comes in 5 parts including the detailed scenic base, candle clusters, and skull scatter pieces, making assembly straightforward for hobbyists of any experience level.
