Thanks for the thought Maksim,
I do know about that article - and I've been making my own bases based
on it - so thanks too to Ron DuBray
(even if he's not still on this list). It requires alot of fiddly
drilling and I've had a fair bit of wastage
but I've done quite a few. The corners are fine, but drilling that
middle hole can just tear the whole
thing appart! I notice in the article that he only has four holes - ie.
four troops per stand - so I don't
think I'm alone in this problem. Maybe I'll surrender and just stick
them on plasticard without drilling
holes next time. Once flocked they should look fine anyway. The taller
GW bases would be fine if
the rest of my army was on them too.
