I had my doubts about the planking at first. I used coffee stirrer sticks and they are not exactly uniform. But the overall effect is quite nice. I do like the green and I think if I pull out the airbrush I can smooth the whole thing out. I may not go much farther at this point as this is really a proof of concept piece. <br /><br />Overall I feel like the design is very successful, it works the way I envisioned and I have learned exactly where the critical points are and how to make them work. I think I can start looking at wood and making decisions about what to use for the actual competition bases.Heislerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16825061407797980077noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4410167761570537191.post-32002297841306401182014-11-08T01:26:52.224-07:002014-11-08T01:26:52.224-07:00Glad to see I am not the only one spending a Frida...Glad to see I am not the only one spending a Friday night with miniatures.<br /><br />The large magnets should do the job nicely, and the wood planking looks good as well.<br /><br />If you like the green, could you airbrush a thin coat on top to smooth it out, but retain the color?Lasgunpackerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13529298072677726064noreply@blogger.com
