A New Take on the Argonauts

 Im like many who have enjoyed Jason and the Argonauts over the years. The club actually refought the "Hydra's Teeth" battle  earlier this month, but I wanted to upgrade a bit. So this time Heracles stays with the Argo, and the King of Chalkis deploys his army to retake the stolen Golden Fleece. 

So here is the battlefield. I don't have an Argo model, so I placed an Arab Dhow on the beach instead, seen at the top-left. The Chalkis King is seen in the lower right, along with his priest of Astartes. He has begun calling up his Army of Skeletons. The King's soldiers soldiers are seen in the upper left, trying to cut off the Argonauts on their way to the Argo. Heracles and some Argonauts are located just below the Argo, while Jason is to the right...

Some of the Argonauts fighting off numerous Skeleton warriors...

Chalkis warriors closing in on Heracles (bad idea!), center of photo with his famous club, and his Argonauts...
Jason and Heracles are holding off their enemies while the Argonauts reach the Argo...
Unfortunately my camera's battery ran low, so that ends the visual. But it was fun.
