Good morning everyone! I've painted a box of Assyrian chariots from Caesar. Nice little models and figures (as always from Caesar). It surprised me how easy they were to put together, especially considering Caesar's soft plastic. I had lots of fun painting all the bright colours and bronze metallics. You might expect more ancients from me in the near future. Enjoy the photos! Edit: I took some additional photos.
