Happy New Year for 2026!
Here is a four mule Neo-Elamite Kallapani cart that I've just finished painting. There's a comparison shot with a two mule cart I painted earlier. The figures are all Eureka Miniatures.These carts were mobile shooting platforms with a crew of a driver and kneeling, massed archers who could dismount as archers on foot. They were drawn by two or four mules or small horses. I wanted some with four mules for variety so bought some extra Eureka mules and added bridle and harness by gluing strips of paper on with PVA. Each cart will have a unit of foot archers to deploy as dismounted troops.
Neat! How does the Eureka kallapani model compare with Foundry’s?
ReplyDeleteThanks Jonathan, the Eureka one is Neo-Elamite and the Foundry one is Neo-Assyrian. Otherwise they’re similar but Foundry has armoured crew excluding driver and the mules have tassle decorations on the bridle.
DeleteGreat work and the Happy New Year!
ReplyDeleteThanks Michal, Happy New Year!
DeleteSuper work on the cart and crew, really nicely done. Lovely looking little model, really must check out Eureka range there looks to be some cracking figures in it.
ReplyDeleteThanks Donnie, they do have some great ranges both 15mm and 28mm.
DeleteOutstanding chariots, cracking job!
ReplyDeleteThanks Phil.
