VBCW Anglican League Motorcycle combination & Aerosan

[Pappa Midnight]

Well this is my first post of some VBCW minis ( not my last).
My VSF stuff is still going strong but I needed a break, so I chose this period.

Anyhow, I'm building an Anglican League army and although I would normally start painting infantry first, I couldn't resist doing some vehicles.

First up is a Motorcycle Combination from First Corps. I decided to turn it into a mobile propaganda unit. The rider has had a head swap and the passenger is a converted Blackscorpion mini. The loud-hailer is from a plastic kit.



Next is a converted "Bolt Action" miniatures Aerosan. I blatantly nicked the idea from the bolt Action site, changing the skids for jeep wheels and adding some stowage. The pilot and gunner have had head-swaps from some BA British Commandos.  I love this vehicle as it is totally mad-cap and really impractical!!!







They both need some matt cote to dull them down a bit as the so-called matt varnish I bought isn't that good.

Hope you like them!

Nice conversions.  Thomas the Train blue on the aerostat.  Are those kill marking on the right side or more of a family crest type marking?  Are the two vehicles referred to informally as "Thunder and Lightning" by less pious members of the League or their opponents?

Thanks Pagumb.
The "Thomas" decal was in my bits box and I thought it would suit it. The small badges on the side are black shields with three leaping lions ( I think). I also found those in my bits box.

Glad you like them.
