WW1-Interwar Pilots?
« on: 10 November 2016, 01:04:28 PM »
Hello There, I recently got into VBCW and have got a couple of 20 Man "Armies" together, although with the different troop values in A World Aflame I am left in need of some cannon fodder pistol armed gentlemen for use on the royalist side. My VBCW is set in Warwickshire, so I thought why not add a bit of local flavor to the mix, the Duke of Warwickshire in 1938 was Charles Greville, 7th Earl of Warwick, and also a movie star appearing in a film about WW1 fighter pilots.


Anyway I thought I'd field a group of pistol armed extras that have come over from the film's production, and are now fighting for my Fascist Volunteers, the W.A.D.L (Or Fighting Ducks!). Does anyone know of some suitable pilots in 28mm?

It's a figure topic that's covered by pretty much everyone ,(even I've done a downed female crew lol) so your spoilt for choice.I'd recommend that you take a look at the companies that do Pulp style figures,as there's even more choices and styles from these ;)
