Nacho Wars - War Machines .


Nuevo Rico has imported several German AV7 tanks ( designated O Levieta 'The Leviethen') - they are less than impressed by their performance . They are underpowered and prone to breakdowns , here the General Staff are being shown around it by a German Military Advisor .


The Republic de los Cocos has three 'Armadillo' armoured cars called 'O punho da republica' - The Fist of the Republic ! here seen with General Pabellion Criollo 'Pai da Republica' - The Father of the Republic .


The model is a MDF / card model from Warbases , I've given it a high gloss finish to try and look like one of those tin plate toys I had as a child .


The armoured car is again from Warbases - a bit fiddly to put together again with a high gloss .Hopefully they will be appearing on the tabletop soon .

    Nice looking vehicles - I have surfed the Warbases site on many occasions and even purchased a Tchanka from them - must have another look soon!

      They are a bit fiddly to put together - but that may just be ham fisted me .

    The vehicles look good, particularly the armoured car.

    Nice additions to your army, I really like the armoured car, it looks a cracking wee thing!

      It has an outer 'skin' of card that took some fitting but I'm pleased with them .

    Somehow cardboard tanks seem rather appropriate foe the Nacho wars. :)

    Beautiful vehicles Tony, your painting makes them look just right! Hard to believe that they're cardboard, I'll have to investigate the Warbases website!

      Thank you - a bit of a pain to put together but worth it in the end .

    Magnificent machines Tony…
    Warbases certainly have a nice and useful range of toys…
    And you have done them proud.

    All the best. Aly
