Hi,

yeah, i’ve seen that…i just wanted to make them myself :)

it goes very well with my terrain board…

I was able to obtain 3d-printed markers on shapeways. They are translucent plastic. Very small, but with good detail.

The Capital Set (all nations) is $25 USD and includes the following:

Germany - Reichstag Building
Japan - Imperial Palace
Italy - Coliseum

U.K. - Westminster Palace
U.S. - Capitol Building
U.S.S.R. - St. Basil’s Cathedral
FEC - Taj Mahal
ANZAC - Sydney Harbor Bridge
France - Eiffel Tower and Arc de Triomphe

When I bring them out for a game, folks are always impressed.

Richard,

––Again, nice paintjobs!

----If you don’t mind me  asking, were these units made using (FUD) frosted ultra detail plastic?

Tall Paul

I believe I did.  I should of spent a little more to get a smooth finish.  These will do, but going forward I will spend the money and get what is a nicer finish.
**––Yep,…it sounds like we both agree that spending the extra bucks to have units produced in FROSTED ULTRA DETAIL (FUD) plastic is EXTREMELY WORTH the additional cost,…not to mention the end result looks SOO much better than the rough surfaces of lesser materials.
----And BTW, your paint jobs are great!.

Thanks for the compliments

I know a producer in Germany, who could deliver a mixture of white dashed and continous lines decals (s. picture). One decal consists of 23 white lines, each of 125 mm length and 0,75mm width, where each decal is EUR 3,50. A direct shipping from the producer to the U.S. would be very expensive, it is about EUR 35,-. If you are interested in, I can order the decals and send it to you personally. This will cause shipping costs of roundabout EUR 10 (depending on the weight…).

The decal is a digital print, that is, you have to cut out the lines. More pleasant would be a screen print, then each line is spearated from the others as a distinct decal in the printing process.

The producer also offers an individual development of decals, but I don’t know how much this is in EUR or $. If you are interested in I will ask.
