10mm Wyld Elf chariot archers for Fantastic Battles

Inspired by/jealous of Roger's wood elf chariots (seen at the time of, but not used in our last battle), I resolved to build one of my own. The chariot and deer are from Cromarty Forge - kindly donated by Roger - and the crew are Forest Dragon archers and a war-dancer with his huge sword removed.

I wanted to have two archers as crew, so used the dancer as a charioteer, running along the shaft in hommage to the charioteers of the Britons (according to Caesar anyway): 

"They can run along the chariot pole, stand on the yoke, and get back into the chariot as quick as lightning." 
Caesar, Gallic War, 4.33
