I am running a Wings of Glory Battle of Britain campaign at the moment - we have played out the Battle of France , our next scenario is the attack on the channel convoys. Ares the game manufacture don't currently do a Dornier model so I have sourced one from Dave at Armaments in Miniature (who covers a lot of the holes in the main game range) lovely little resin models they are too. The game forum does have a good list of aircraft data and stats so these are now ready for duty next Monday
We will see how they do on Monday, 2 Dorniers, 2 me109 versus 3 Hurricanes |
They have had a hole drilled on the underside to hold a 6mm ball bearing which is used to hold them to the magnetic stand . This also acts nicely as a gimble mount , allowing the plane to placed in the correct attitude! |
I still need to complete the squadron ID numbers , however when i check the decals stash I did not have the correct sized ones unfortunately , so they are on order !
Anyway at the least the scoreboard has been ticked along a bit ! Millsy will be catching me up no doubt as he' getting through his madcap (but however very cool) heraldic phase!
JamieM - these look absolutely smashing. I'm not very good at understanding actual camo patterns, but is there a reason why one is sporting the latest fashion of natty yellow accents and the other one is stuck in last seasons accentless paintjob? Enjoy the game, campaigns are awesome when they keep going.
They look excellent Dave!
