Sorry Bob, I can't help myself – are you suggesting that the driver was half-assed?

All in all this has been an interesting exercise and I’d be happy to take on another TMP Workbench article.

This was the closing statement of my first TMP Workbench article, so Personal logo Editor in Chief Bill The Editor of TMP Fezian takes me at my word, calls my bluff, and offers me the chance to paint up some more figures for TMP!

The three choices were some Undead pirates from Black Cat, a Sumerian chariot from Eureka, or a preacher for Deadlands. I emailed back to say that I didn't have any preferences, and I’d be happy to take on any one. Personal logo Editor in Chief Bill The Editor of TMP Fezian emailed back, and I was getting the Sumerian 4-Ass Chariot. Excellent!

If I had been put on the spot, this is the one I would have picked. One of the great things for me about doing Workbench articles is that I get a chance to paint things I would never ordinarily buy for myself.

I undercoated with GW spray, then painted the miniatures with Vallejo Model and Game Color paints and GW inks applied with a No. 2 Kolinsky sable round brush.

If I was to paint it again, there are a few things that I would do differently, but over all I’m happy with the way it turned out.
