That's a rather splendid contraption. Now we need to see a version converted for war.... ;) lol

That's a very nice build. I think it looks fine for vsf, it'll fit right in.

no consideration whatsoever given to the safety or comfort of anyone using or driving the thing...

That’s the idea  lol

You cannot build an Empire if you have to worry about OSHA.

A really nice piece of work. Could do with more rivets for my taste, but that's rivet-counting.

Looks great 😊!

Nice bit of kit I’ll be jealous of the new owner...

Got a quick steam wagon completed recently. The design is probably a bit late for our time period but it’s VSF so I’ll let it go  :)

So, after taking a severe beating last night I’ve decided I need more independent troop types to bolster current forces. Gone for Copplestone naval brigade but with a different colour scheme. Test figure for now but I think it works and it was fairly quick to paint.

Looking good. His expression suggests he's out for revenge for that beating...

I look forward to reading the British 'news'paper accounts of the battle...

Thanks chaps  :)

Andy, all of the battle reports go on the Red Planet Miniatures blog linked below but I’m playing catch up at the moment so this particular beating won’t be seen for a while yet  lol

Looks like Confederate navy in his grey uniform!

How about a white uniform covered with Nartian dust (=pink)  :D

...  or a striped top?   o_o

I think that works. Perhaps they are from the Independent Trading Company of Lord Trotter?

That would, perhaps, account for the success of James' forces on the battlefield   lol lol lol
