I did a recycling job a while ago on some flight stands, that I originally made for 1/600th scale modern aircraft using a wire upright permanently glued to the models. These were made for Bag the MiG but I'll now use them for the Khalkin Gol project instead. I switched over to magnet basing for my 1/600th scale planes, so I removed the wires, re-drilled the bases and inserted 40mm panel pins instead. The whole lot were then resprayed with Halfords grey primer and finally given a couple of coats of Halfords Rover Henley Blue. Anyway, I have twenty six of them ready for some playtesting of the Khalkin Gol scenarios when I finally get round to writing them, using my old blue hex cloth until I can afford a nice new Mongolian steppe themed one.
Investing in a suitable Matt too (Eventually)? Watching with interest as usual.
ReplyDeleteThey're not cheap..which is strange as they can't be that expensive to produce!
ReplyDeleteThey look great .. I’ve done the same (panel pins and magnets ) and 3d printed the hex bases .. been eyeing up deepcut ‘Mig Alley’ mat to use for flying tigers call Japanese games
ReplyDeleteThat's a good idea!
