Chariot #3 of nine goes in for a bit of rework. Like chariots #1 and #2 before, yoke needed to be removed and flipped and one wheel needed reaffixing. Riders needed to be resituated in their cab.Finally, some minor paint touch-ups before staining and mounting on a new base.
As I work through each of the chariots, visions of fielding these machines on the gaming table are becoming more frequent. Spread out onto the desk are Army Lists to help in solidifying a force to build. With enough chariots to field four Impetvs-sized BMUs of two chariots each, these four chariot elements are sufficient to complete two armies under Basic Impetvs.
Excellent chariot Jonathan!
ReplyDeleteI love details on the wheels.
Best regards!
Thanks!
DeleteAnother amazing chariot, very impressive!
ReplyDeleteI think these are looking fab!
DeleteLooks great really worth the time and effort to debase it really sets the models off.

I agree! Thanks for the visit Willie!
DeleteAnother excellent chariot Jonathan! Good time to be ordering from Foundry with their Xmas sale...
ReplyDeletePerfect time for a Foundry restock!
DeleteVery nice work !
ReplyDeleteThank you!
DeleteThe finished vehicle looks wonderful. Look forward to seeing them all together.
ReplyDeleteThe stain does a good job of bringing up the fine detailing of the model. I look forward to seeing them all rehabilitated too!
DeleteAnother great looking chariot refurb , exciting news about the foundry order, looking forward to the army, which at the rate you go will probably be February.

Iain, you are too generous on my painting speed. Perhaps if I painting nothing else until February it might be possible to field an Assyrian army. We will see. Reworking these chariots does provide good motivation.
DeleteA very successful Rehab job. Taking advantage of the Holiday sale at Foundry, I see. Assyrians and Neo-Babylonians?
ReplyDeleteThanks, Peter! For now, only Assyrians were included in the Foundry order. If nothing else, I figured Assyrians could face off against each other. What do you think about that?
DeleteThe paint jobs on these are really nice. The clean up work seems worth it to get these on the table.
ReplyDeleteI cannot take credit for the basic paint job myself but the rework needed is worthwhile, for sure!
DeleteVery nice looking chariot Jonathan!
