iv had some great results recently with mixing WW2 tamiya 1/48 scale stuff with GW stuff. Many of you have seen my defence turret and realised the walls and sandbags are from the
TAMIYA Brick Wall, Sand Bag & Barricade Set. 1/48 scale (32508)
and there are other really good kits out there that i have used too.
want barrells but dont want to for out for the "battlefield accessories" sprue?
then try this one. its 1/48 scale so are about the same size but there is a smaller scale set with barrels and pouches that are as the barrel on the vehicle sprue
i have also seen a very good "tank crew" set that has a decent amount of bits and bobs- shell cases, crates and vehicle repair kit- an anvil and tools etc. Enginseer station? and just look how cheap it is.
top tip for this too- the hands of the figures are about right for cadians. i always find i need hands for many of my projects
one other thing i saw on saturday that i cant find info on the net for was a chain link fence for a railway set. it was actually pretty awesome and as soon as santa brings me pennies i will be making some security fence pieces!
also i found this in my local model shop that would be ideal to make industrial looking areas
many younger modelers just slavishly go for GW products but if you mix and match with GW and other kits from other eras you can be creative and original
