Bases and Beagles



I braved the sub-zero temperature in the garage this afternoon to texture the sea bases for the Indonesian warships, using the usual artist's acrylic paste and spatula method. I also knocked together some bases for the 1/600th scale Il-28T Beagle torpedo bombers, using some laser cut mdf squares and panel pin stands, so that the magnets on the underside of the aircraft have something to attach on to. I also found the decals that I will use on the Il-28's in the relevant box, so I'm ready to add them as soon as I've thawed out. I was going to have a whole selection of aircraft including MiG-17's, MiG-19's and a few more Il-28's, not to mention three gigantic Tu16's, but I've decided to keep it simple for the moment so that I can wrap up the project in the next few days.
