Description
Sisera's greatest weapon against the Israelites was the use of 900 iron chariots. The point is that he had at his disposal some of the greatest technology of that time. They were heavy, yes, but could withstand virtually any assault given at that time. And with a great number of them, it was at the very least, a very imposing enemy to face down. The most you could hope to do would be to form a wall with spears that might affect the horses, but if the chariots made it through, you were toast.

So here he is in his Sherdana, or Sea Peoples, regalia charging down. I wanted this to be full of action and movement as the point of the chariot is that it's fast, strong, and deadly.
