WiP: Glorious Anti Infantry Machine aka GAIM

[Tomsche]

Now that our band of gamers has decided to start with VSF (at last), I choose to play my beloved Italians (it`s a ww2 underdog thing).

The first project I decided on converting is the one thing they did get famous for, namely the quality of their artillery gunners, and as such my force just must include a heap of blammo gazooi goodness 


The crew will be Bicorne miniatures, and the first contraptions to come out of the Mama Miracoli workshop is the GAIM gun and supporting smaller caliber cannons







The gun was such named as the main body is a Babylon 5 gaim spaceship I just had lying about without ever starting the fleet

The supporting guns with the Buldogi Mk IV limber automaton




Avanti Savoia!

I really like the second lot of guns.
What are they a combination of?

 

[Tomsche]

Some old 25mm metal undercarriage from ACW with an old Eldar epic vehicle`s gun, not sure on the name of it though as it has been lying in my bitsbox for ages (like, around when epic came out)

[rob_the_robgoblin]

Well, I like them. They'll make great electro-cannons. 

[Dewbakuk]

Prism Cannon is the gun name.

Some more pictures then the rushed one from http://leadadventureforum.com/index.php?topic=17889.0, including the `buldogi` tractor thingi for the big gun

I'm liking these very much!

Is the 'Buldogi' made from a toy or something else?

[Tomsche]

A kinder egg toy with some FoW bits stuck on 

[Fjodin]

Look very VSF-ish!

Awesome! I love them, especially the electric cannons. The smaller the ones. The bigger one doesn't say VSF so much to me, but it's still cool! Needs more rivets!
