From MattT: Workers of the World Unite - VBCW
Over the last painting challenge my brother has been showing his collection of royalist forces for VBCW, and i thought it was time you saw what he is going to be facing.
This first group is a bit of a cheat as i didnt paint them in the time the blog has been live, but they are all post Covid-19 so im counting them and showing them off.
Sailors on the HMS Aurora docked at Hull have mutinied and renamed the ship Unity. They have managed to unearth an old armoured car for moral support and are ready to fight for their freedoms.
Since the challenge began properly i have managed to add a pair of pulp sailors to the crew. Figures from Artizan Designs Thrilling Tales.
The Workers of the East Riding have raised the banner, and men are flocking to the cause as we speak. Figures from Sloppy Jalopy miners set. Banner is a cut and paste job from images off the internet.
All the best, Stay Safe. Matt

Nice work Matt. Love the armoured car and the banner.
ReplyDeleteLovely work on your bunch of militant mariners!
ReplyDeleteBest Iain
Great painting Matt - or should I own up and say brother. Did I give you that armoured car as a pressie last Christmas? Great painting job! Wish I had left out the mounted machine gun though as that looks nasty. Still my armed Police and Territorials have been reinforced by 303 armed Schoolboys painted in the Challenge this year, so we are ready and waiting for the first clash !
ReplyDeleteBring it on ..... Cheers Jez
What a great looking mob and that AC is a cracker. My favourite is the banner team though.
ReplyDeleteReally nice painting. I especially love the banner - might steal that idea. And the AC is Absolutely Charming ;)
ReplyDeleteReally love that banner. Trades Union banners are really colourful and interesting, I remember admiring them at marches I’ve seen in London in the past few years
ReplyDeleteLovely work Matt and that banner is superb!
ReplyDeleteAwesome work. AVBCW seems so characterful as a setting with loads of cool options. Your rogue sailors and armoured car fit right in.
ReplyDeleteTo be honest Hull is revolting most of the time 😉 these are lovely 👍
ReplyDeleteAll wonderful figures, especially the AC and banner!
ReplyDeleteThat’s some really nice painting Matt. Well done!
ReplyDeleteThanks for all the kind words.
ReplyDeleteGreat work, love the figures. I've dabbled in VBCW myself but at 20mm scale. \but these are making me think bigger!
ReplyDeleteMatt, these are so brilliantly characterful, wonderful stuff indeed!
