bench update 09 April 2025

I dug back through various spares, and I've done a little more rejigging of a Trojan 4Sp, added two Atlantic Trojans to spaces in a 4Bd I chopped spear/pike types out (third time I have edited this base) and have chosen some Amazon minis to become two of the 4Bd I need.

It'll all come together!

The modular chariot crews went in fine - except the general. That 3-woman crew isn't coming back out without a fight!

After that success I spent a bit of time bringing the look of the Trojan bases together. 

Then, trying to assess what my best option is for the dismounted 4Bd for each chariot. I'm leaning towards using Amazon foot, because they make the most sense for the chariot crews.

I thought I'd get a couple of shots on this stage, the modular crews.

1. Operate on each mini to be mounted

2. Use grouting to bed them onto card sabots that will fit in the chariots. I had been hoping to jam 3-woman crews in but one archer and one driver was about the limit. The general has her personal javelin hurler as well.

The grouting is a very tough variety of Selleys colored calk. It used to called terracotta color but now it's called rich earth.
