2 Horse Power Steam Coach ...* FINISHED PICTURES ADDED *

[Pappa Midnight]

Just a few quick shots of my latest Work in Progress.

It's a steam coach with a twist.....the horses are steam powered not the the coach!!

It's based on plastic "Wedding Favor" I picked up for about £1.00. It has been slightly re-worked with a scratch-built interior a brake lever and a front kick-board added.
I'm going to be using some Mage-Knight steam horses to pull it.
All told it's cost me about £4.00 in materials!!!!

A scale comparison with a Westwind Victorian Gentleman:


I've just found a suitable driver which i will convert over the weekend.

Oooh, I like this 
you WERE lucky with that coach 

[Geudens]

Now I need to create a device to stop the coach!

Just get an UEFA umpire. Once it leaves the coaching zone, it will be reprimanded.

Seriously, great idea, fine execution, and I damn right cannot wait to see the finished piece!

"Seriously, great idea, fine execution, and I damn right cannot wait to see the finished piece!"

Yeah all true but we already know it will be absolutely awesome.

The wedding favour shop should get these for sale on a wargames website somewhere though as they would probably sell more - yes I would like one myself

[Gluteus Maximus]

Oh no! There he goes again. More VSF splendiferousness to both delight and depress us mere mortals 

[Supercollider]

Drool 

Can't wait to see how this turns out!  Where did you get  the coach - looks great for all sorts of experiments

[Sterling Moose]

Another masterpiece in the works from PM.  Does his talent have no bounds?

 

[Sendak]

I like it!

Nice twist, the horses steam powered.

No sponsons or turrets? 

The anticipation is killer.

[Chairface]

You are truly gifted.

He he he, I saw it in the flesh and heard what might be done to it . I think you are in for a treat.
What more can I say,  NOTHING you'll have to wait

Go Pappa go

Great idea, Looking forward to seeing the finished article.
Where did you pick up the Mage Knight horses.
Thunderchicken and I have been looking for some of those to create Her Majesty's (Guad Bless 'Er) Steam mounted dargoon guards
