Last Christmas Museum Miniatures offered an .obj or .stl file of the Trojan horse as part of their annual good cheer. not having a 3D printer, I forwarded the file to a friend, who I knew had purchased one for his son. Both are gamers, and eventually I received a figure in the mail.
I kept the paint job basic. Natural wood for the main body. Tail and hooves are black. Gold for the helmet with some red trim, and a headdress/mane of purple and white.
I sent the photos off to my friend and he asked if I could send something showing figures for scale to show his son. I took a picture of the horse with a DBA Seleucid (166 to 83 BC) Greek army. It is DBA II/19D and the figures are by Essex Miniatures. The period is wrong, but they are the only 15mm Greeks I have.
Very convincing. If left on my doorstep, I'd take it in.
