I have just come a cross this thread I must be blind, the workmanship and painting is world class and one of the best builds I have seen in all these years, it is amazing what you can produce from some sheets of plastic and a good idea - plus great raw talent and a lot of time well done I cant wait to see it finished .

Next stage was to fit the platform onto the chariot. it had leather ties that wrapped around the suspension straps so that the platform could be height adjusted

So the other wheel to do and then the yoke and pins

a couple of update pics after a great weekend at Telford, for some reason the lazy dude on the chariot decided to move position and now his left leg didn't sit right on the platform, so to sort this out ive made a sheepskin rug for him to sit on, ive also painted the horses butt on one side.

All for now, I should hopefully get some more done soon and get the first horse finished, ill then be able to get the other one sorted. I can see the finish line on this one now, its still a way off but at least im getting there

A bit inconsiderate the guy moving position Paul, hope you had a stern word :) :) :)

Looking very good, as per usual ...

What should I say more, I've already used all the adjectives I know in English.

Bravo!

Colin not only had a stern word but threatened to hand him over to the romans if he didn't behave, I don't know ya bring em into this world, dress em and look after them and what do they do................................MOVE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!.:mad: very flaming inconsiderate

Cheers Francesco, if you have run out of adjectives just use some expletives :( ;) :) ..........or just put some Italian adjectives on ;)

Paul
 
I bet he moved on purpose just to get a bit more comfort and I guess you caved in and gave him the extra rug... ;)

Great work as usual Sir... :)

Andy...

Cheers Ole, thanks for the comments

Had time today to finish the horse, one down one to go, perhaps a few bits to touch up later, but on the whole im pleased with it

There is the strappage to add but i can do that when hes attached to the chariot
