New and Improved, the One-Man Armoured Steam Battle-Tricycle
« on: October 20, 2016, 02:25:21 AM »
Continuing with my present steampunk jag, I've whipped up a one-man armoured steam battle-tricycle in 15-20mm scale (it could be used with either; it's almost certainly too cramped for 28mm). It comes equipped with a state-of-the-art Maxim pom-pom gun.



It's available for sale at http://shpws.me/MOXF. No self-respecting Victorian SF army should be without at least a dozen!

That's excellent
I am going to build a wargames army, a big beautiful wargames army, and Mexico is going to pay for it.

It's a 28mm steam pram for Eureka's anarchist nannies!

The image had crossed my mind, but, full stop, wait 'anarchist nannies' actually exist?

They exist!  lol

I do think it'd be a common joke, right up until having to face that Maxim.

Doesn't look like a patrol vehicle; more a 'mad dash' cavalry-style unit.

Need we say, keep 'em coming?

It looks both spiffy and delightfully dotty. Yes, just the thing for the Anarchist Nannies!  ;D  :)
