1:4 will be the perfect sizes for them, but please, try a different pose. Doesn't have the look of an Olympian. Remember, these are the Gods that we are talking about.

I'd go for 1:4 as well, but would depend on price and design. Also how many Gods will be in the series? If more than 6, then perhaps 1:6 scale makes more sense. As for the Ares design, I agree on the need to make him more "godlike" but he should definitely be in armor with a classic Greek helmet, also there should be come commonality to the lineup, such as Greek columns and reliefs. Less rock bases would also be good. Can't they be in Olympus on marble floors?
Some elements of these designs would be nice. For example, I like the idea of Poseidon being greenish blue and having a tail. Not crazy about the Hades though. Athena should have a helmet, etc. etc.

Nexus,
I initially thought about 7 Olympian gods:
Ares
Zeus
Poseidon
Hades
Athena
Aphrodite
Artemis/Diana

The Greeks often depicted Ares nude with shield, spear and helmet. Perhaps it was because gods didn’t need armor or because it was symbolism for war above all else. There seems to be many interpretations of him so you could take artistic license and make this one your own version. I was looking for a symbol that he could wear on his shield or chest plate that would make him instantly recognizable as the god of war. I found that the vulture is often used to symbolize him and also the spear. Maybe a pose of him arching back ready to throw a spear? With vultures at his feet ready to pick at the soon to be dead?

no Apollo?
on second thought, i think making them 1/6 makes more sense since it is going to be quite a big line. keep the cost down too. having each cost more than $250 you are getting into SS PF range and Im not sure if collectors are willing to invest that much into this line versus well established companies like SS.
