I have no idea what this is...
...but it's awesome.
I was looking for a solution to avoid wrinkled kilts in vehicles - I thought a chariot would do.
More images of this in various states of completion can be found here (click "Weiter" at the top of the page to advance through the series), along with similar objects from Stronghold Miniature Wargaming Extravaganza.
Now, hows about some discourse on Roman influence on Gaelic culture?

hehehe... those seem to be warcraft models. :rolleyes:
Regarding the use of chariots as from Roman influence,.... well... they were not used by them mostly on war, but it was ok for greeks, persians, egiptians, sirians,..... and celts!... and they proved any effectiveness against roman infantry!
¡Salud!

And that the chariot is pulled by Clydesdales adds the perfect finishing touch!

not warcraft...but Celtos, it's a game that was made by a now defunct company called I-Kore. The second pic with the drunken dwarf is a Games Workshop miniature. After kilts.....the next biggest thing I'm obsessive about in wargaming.
my fav mini. (I secretly aspire to be her...or at least the girl in my avatar)

Which mini lines have kilted figures?
Most of them are approx. 1/48 or 1/4"=1' (a 6' person would be 1.5 inches tall), which is ALSO the same scale as O guage trains, Dept. 56 houses (and other lines), and various other "toy" and "collectable" stuff.
I know the "hero clix" line (marvel and DC characters) is as well.
I use these "war gaming" pieces for a train layout (which also has a Batcave, airport full of air racers, an F1 paddock, baseball park/football stadium, a pirate ship, and a VERY ODD collection of cars and people. All extentions of my personality and interests. I need more people in kilts (maybe with enough I'll make my own Highland Games).

yeah o-guage terrain is a bit big for most wargaming mini's but you can sorta fudge the scale. The mini's i come across regularly in hobby shops are usually what's referred to as 28mm 'heroic'. I also think it depends how they measure the fig...if it's from bottom of feet to top of head...or bottom of base to top of head.
If I were you I'd look around online for close out deals on Celtos mini's....I know Newwavegames.com used to carry them.
Also try Rackham.....or maybe Reaper. Hope that helps a bit.
