The Duke Finishes One in October

Post by Duke Maddog »

It may be November but this was finished in the last week in October. I also am not quite sure where this would go, so here it is.

This is an ancient UPC model of the Roman Racing Chariot circa 34AD. It was actually fairly easy to build; the most difficult part being cementing the horses down in the proper position so the harness would fit right. Aft6er some work, it is done well enough to call it completed:

And here is a little close up shot of the crew:

My apologies for the poor pictures. I got a new camera from my nephew, but the instruction sheet was missing. I'm still experimenting with it to get the best possible results.

Thank you for looking in, comments are welcome.

I love it! That has to be one of your most unique builds yet. Well maybe along with some of your other horse drawn stuff, but just such an ancient subject.

Thank you Carlos! Yes, I agree it's one of my most unique models, ranking up there with Rocket the Raccoon from Guardians of the Galaxy and the Legend of Sleepy Hollow Headless Horseman.


Thank you Mike!
