I had some grand ideas (white horses, reins and whip)
I ended up with simple black horses, but did try for an interesting design on the chariot
using a picture of the Gorgon's head I found and had fun resizing.
The one innovative thing I did was to give the chariot a metal floor and mount the driver on a piece of magnetic sheet.
It's had a good coat of Plasti-Dip and is now ready for racing.
Rarely have I seen classic Airfix so wonderfully presented.
ReplyDeleteThank you.
DeleteLooks great. Ben hur racing using Airfix chariots...that´s a good idea.
ReplyDeleteThanks.
DeleteIs now a good time to confess I haven't seen the movie?
Looks like a great rendition of Stephen Boyd playing Messala!!
ReplyDeleteThanks Carlo, I bow to your superior chariot knowledge.
DeleteExcellent. I love the old Airfix romans. Very cool. See if Cato the Elder is up for a race. :)
ReplyDeleteThanks. We shall see...
