From BenitoM: Boudicca Queen of the Iceni

My second chariot model of my Briton Army for Infamy! Infamy! is Boudicca Queen of the Iceni, and will double as commanding leader of the army too.


Boudicca led the revolt againts the Romans  in 60/61 BC, putting to fire St Albans, London and Colchester until finally defeated by Gaius Suetonius Paulinus in the Battle of Watling Street.


This is a Wargames Foundry superbly sculpted metal model from its Briton range in 28mm. Both the driver and the Boudicca mini are very detailed and easy to paint, a real joy.


Next, I'm planning to finish the thrid chariot of the unit and then move to the foot warriors.

  6. Excellent work, Benito. The patterning on Boudica's robe is very convincing.

  9. Great stuff! Didn’t she have scythed wheels, or is that like Viking horned helmets?
