| Actually finished both the queen and a 'line' chariot. |
 |
| For the Queen's chariot I used Persian chariot horses. |
 |
| The plume is more impressive and it has reins moulded with the horse... |
 |
| Also finished the line chariot. I'll make at least one other using the SS64 Dancing girl girl instead of SS61 Amazon Enchantress as the charioteer. |
 |
| For reins I used something from a previous hobby - fly tying. There is a very useful range of materials to be found in the fly tying hobby! There is a wide range of tinsels available, for example from Veniard. Been using their stuff for 60 years... |
Very nice indeed, good choice of horses for the queens chariot, they look suitably regal. As a dabbler in fly tying I have never thought of using any of the tinsels etc, will have to rake through my supplies to see what's there!!
ReplyDeleteThe tinsels have a lot of modelling uses.
