Ancient Gallic Panzer Brigade

Well, they're finally done!  The other night I made one big push and got all three chariots finished, got the yokes mounted, did some final touching up, and stained them with the Army Painter strong tone.  Then left them overnight to dry, but while they were still wet, I managed to get a few pictures in, so here they are at long last!

This is the Gallic chieftain on his chariot, wearing chainmail, the chariot trimmed with red to make it stand out

and the chief's posse

another chariot, three in all

the sculpting wasn't the best, but they painted up well enough

The chief with his ornate shield, there are actually three chiefs in my army

The driver's face showed up darker than it should be though

on your marks...!

they see us rollin', they hatin', patrollin', they tryin' to catch us ridin' dirty!

So last night I've gone right to work on the final two elements of my Gallic army, the cavalry.  The army list calls for two stands of 3 cavalry. I have some Italeri figures, but too many of them wore trumpets on their backs, and since I had gone with HaT figures for the chariots and crew, and for the Gallic horse in my Carthaginian army, I decided to go with HaT figures again for these stands.  Managed to get the little bit of flash removed along with mold lines, and started blocking in the faces and hands, and the clothes... more plaids, groan...!
