15mm Painted GZG Civilian Mechas and Support Vehicles.....

.....and Broadside 2013 this Sunday with the Rejects!

These were purchased at Salute 2013 (first stop before they sold out) and are my contractor/civilian vehicles for scenery, maybe a scenario or two, terraforming etc.... and also as impromptu hardware for any rebel factions and uprisings!

They're lovely looking vehicles but were an absolute arseache (the Mechas) to put together, I like GZG especially their infantry but their vehicles sometimes do my fecking head in but I'm addicted and that's that and people will say if you don't like them don't buy them, that's true also but it's a limited market and it sometimes feels like your treated that way....as I said they're nice but some instructions now and again would be helpful, I built these with pictures I found on Dropship Horizon............

15mm GZG figure to show some size or scale.....


Hercules version B and C, power loader and site clearance Mechas......




Colonial Ranger and Rover.......





This was the two Mechas as purchased...........

.....but the end result is not too bad!

28mm Painted Copplestone Mounted Warlord and Bodyguard........

....and part of a larger Victorian Sci-Fi force,or to use another term "the bad guys".

As part of my ongoing Victorian sci-fi, Steampunk shenanigans these Copplestone figures are the forerunners for the rest of the army/force which will include infantry, armour and of course tunnelling machines!

The warlord has a dismounted version which will be seen with the main army.

28mm Victorian Sci-Fi Scout Aeronef HMS "Angry" and pilots from.....

.....Ironclad Miniatures and Copplestone Castings.

A 28mm mostly resin model from Ironclad Miniatures, she has a Royal Navy crew from Copplestone Castings painted around here somewhere as well, the pilots are from Copplestone as well, this is a small part of the latest period showing the British government has a long reach and a member of the foreign office to place anywhere there's a hint of trouble or a sniff of someone else's resources!

A nice kit all the same.........
