On the way to Botulinum ...

The commander of the nearest legion journies to Botulinum by chariot to discuss the unrest amongst the local tribes with the governor.


[new items: chariot and chariot driver;  the chariot is a modified one I bought off Ebay - the only thing I did was to swap-out the body of the chariot with one from a Italeri quadriga and put it on a new base; the driver is from the same Italeri set with his whip replaced with a piece of thin black model railway layout wire]
