Thank you, Bill.

Spot on!! The scene *was* inspired by "Ilium" and "Olympos" indeed. It seems 
that I have got the evocation right :-)

I agree. Like several of my figures, he is likely to come back one way or 
another. However, the modelling of the panoplia was an interesting exercise 
in itself too (still not entirely finished) which stretched my Poser 
possibilities to their limits. I need to model better sandals, using 
conforming clothes strategies instead of dynamic ones like I prefer. That 
means a more serious incursion into Poser's Setup Room.
