Akkadian Chariot

Here we have a couple the wonderfully sculpted and presented new 28mm Akkadian chariots from Cutting Edge.  Photo not as clear I would like but army shots to come later (basic Impetus size).

I chose yellow to make them look different form the usually seen red Sumerian chariots. These are the chariots from the time of Sargon the Great who crushed the Sumerians and created the first known Empire in the Near East.  Sargon did like a good battle.

  4. Thanks guys. These modles finnish off a great range (some more to come though). The angry mules were fun to paint and really add visual interest to the army.
