Starting this very nice figure from Minormous-Myceanean (darn it is hard to spell 
) palace guard, I have printed in 75mm: 🏛️ Figure - Greek Mycenaean Heavy Infantry 1500 B.C. Palace Guard!・ 3D File for 3D printing・Cults
This is the initial painting, so it looks rough now, but it will improve. The bronze armor is painted with GSW metal pigment mixed with Vallejo metal gloss varnish:
Cheers!
This is awesome! I love the Bronze Age Greeks, from an historical standpoint, & something I’d love to model more. I wish I could find a Mycenean chariot in 54mm or 1/35 scale, as a modeling project.

Thanks!
There is a nice 54mm chariot if you could find the model:
Mycenaean chariot for the Attica Studio
Cheers!
Looks like a good start. 
Sorry I can’t help with that, but 28mm (1/56th) aren’t such a bad size for a display piece; I had been contemplating one for the “Setting hitched” GB…
As originally issued these tended to come with two crews, a Minoan (Dendra panoply) or a somewhat later Mycenaean variant, they seem to have mixed these up now (same with their Lansquenet cannon and crews). Wargames Atlantic do the chariots only in plastic, you’ll need to source a crew; some retailers will sell you one chariot rather than having to buy the box.

More painting of the details, I mixed the bronze with brown ink and with stippling added slight tonal variation.
Cheers!
Hey, that looks great! I really like the metal armor…very unique and realistic in the color shifts, tones, and pitting to signify that it’s not “pure” cast and super-clean.
Thanks! I really like how the bronze metallic pigment turned out.
Painting all that stitches was tedious, all mistakes will correct later, too tired now 
There is some deformation from the printing on the right shoulder pad I didn’t notice, it will be reprinted.
Cheers!
