British Motorcycle Infantry

A few pictures of a little project I've had on the go for a while...



Airfix bike with Airfix sidecar, slightly modified with green-stuff. This is the machinegun platoon


Edai bike and sidecar, crew is made from spares with Zvezda heads


Academy bike, Fujimi sidecar



Added small spares for a little extra detail



Still some minor paintwork to touch-up but they are pretty much ready for the tabletop. Just started working on a command stand.

  1. Nice one Al! Sort of Outlaw Motorcycle Gang'ish 1940's style. Winston's Warriors?
    Cheers

  2. Nice troops - presumably the early Road Rats rather than the Desert Rats :)

  3. Very nice! It is always nice to see motorcycle units that are a break from the usual array WW2 german units!
