"Captive Europa *adult*" We continue to develop the series that we have begun, and this time we continued the development of the series "Ancient Greek Myths Series". Kit no #24069 shows an essentially eternal story with a captive girl being rewarded to the winner. Perhaps our kit reflects the myth of the Trojan War, perhaps a slightly different reading of the myth of the abduction of Europa by Zeus, or perhaps the modellers will find their own reading of this story. from

If it's Zeus, he should have the form of a white bull, right? |

…indeed should be a bull instead of a horseman of course :) Photo blocked by adult filter:

Before the time of stirrups riding just with yourself on a horse was not a small feat. Hauling an unwilling passenger around is a show of skill probably worthy of a statue – for the horse no less then the rider.
That said, I fail to recognize the "Greek Myth", though it certainly reflects the motivation of not a few of these ancient (or any other) warriors. |

Looking at the second (unpainted)figure it appears to represent the Greek Myth of the chap who pushed his entire hand up some poor girls bottom while riding a horse! (or is about to in the model!) Cheers Roger. |
