Chariots

Currently working on my chariot unit (i want 3 chariots and a chariot prince because theyr'e awesome!)

First pics the one im working on now, its the 6th ed chariot (all crew present but unpainted, the spears actually visable in the left corner) its coming along pretty well, i really like how the sculpted bits on the front of the chariot came out they look cool, now just to get the bows on the side painted and some detailing and shading on the wheels because they look as flat as a pancake.

Second pics done thats a 4th edition chariot (from 1993, the bastards older than me lol) that came in awful condition from ebay the chariot yoke was missing, and had no horses so i used the ones left over from my old lion chariot and the riders weapon was trashed so i re-built and kit bashed to make him an on-foot noble and re-built the yoke with greenstuff as best as i could.
I then found the bow armed dude on ebay (god bless ebay!) and used one of the metal sea guard that are on my painting table waiting to be done as the second crew man. He looks cool in there i think and his wargear makes sence as he does have a spear and bow in the rules so i like it.

And lastly the final model is sefalyn the old special character, i'll probably just use him as a prince i love the model so when i saw it going online cheapo i snapped it up before somone else could get it!


 


I have another chariot (another 4th ed i found on ebay) coming in the post, as he's intact unlike the old one im going to have him as the prince and get the newer plastic kit to round off the unit and use the lions as unit fillers for my white lions mounting the charioteers dressed as lions on the legs of some old cavalry i have lying round to make good old lion cavalry! Which i think everyone will probably agree is the most commonly done conversion in the whole of the high elf army.
