WIP: VBCW Vehicle "Evelyn" 28mm motoring goodness
« on: September 04, 2011, 12:58:47 PM »
Fresh out of the mould, sans tyres and accessories, the soon to be available "Evelyn" armoured motorcar.
Perfect for the fighting gentleman who prefers not to ruin his brogues walking to the skirmish.

Plate armour protects both driver, gunner, and radiator. No more pesky overheating due to light arms fire.


The Evelyn can travel to the left...


and to the right.


She also has a perfectly formed back side.

If that is real then I am impressed by your research, and if you have made it up even more so!

Why thank you. The name "Evelyn" is in tribute to our last wartime elder, my wife's grandmother, who we lost a few months ago and still really miss. It was also my Grandmother's name. Their surnames were Banham and Calveley, hence the gun name. Three quarter of one pound just seems suitably useless to be very popular in VBCW, and reduced recoil a likely metaphor for less powder per shell... shortages y'know.  ;)
