Tumbling Dice 1/6000th scale Balloons |
The next thing to do on my never-ending list of things for the WW1 project are a couple of observation balloons, one British and one German, which are required for Duel of Aces and also really useful as targets in Algernon Pulls It Off. The Tumbling Dice models are cast in a very hard resin material, with the airborne versions in two separate halves and the grounded version modelled on a scenic base. The come supplied with a basket and crew but no instructions on how best to assemble and rig them. I plan to be using magnet basing for the flying ones, so will need to work out how to mount the basket, add rigging lines and attach the magnet, all without breaking the castings. Should be fun!?
It would be kind if you could make a post later of how you solved it. I also have some of the baloons, but after looking at them, they went to the bottom of the pile for the very reason you mention. I have to much unfinished anyway :p
