Title: World War I in the air Post by: EvilGinger on 11 December 2012, 17:38:11 I have just succumbed to the concept of printed models & put in a test order for some 1:350 Shapeways biplanes which I plan to use for Wing of War & Algy, the toofatlardies WWI air war rules when it comes back out.
For the Entente (http://images1.sw-cdn.net/model/picture/220x165_456678_371193_1338416829.jpg) Sopwith 1 1/2 Strutter http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sopwith_1%C2%BD_Strutter (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sopwith_1%C2%BD_Strutter) (http://images1.sw-cdn.net/model/picture/220x165_534483_411167_1338417270.jpg) Nieuport 11 Quite my favourite aircraft of WWI http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nieuport_11 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nieuport_11) & Central powers (http://images1.sw-cdn.net/model/picture/220x165_607580_464886_1340043042.jpg) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Halberstadt_D.III (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Halberstadt_D.III) that is all for now but there will be more I fear..... >:DGinger Title: Re: World War I in the air Post by: EvilGinger on 11 December 2012, 17:59:21 (http://images1.sw-cdn.net/model/picture/674x501_631862_491827_1342181721.jpg)

Title: Re: World War I in the air Post by: EvilGinger on 01 January 2013, 18:37:23 as are the new DH2's in 1:350
(http://images1.sw-cdn.net/model/picture/674x501_850775_732317_1357035388.jpg) Done by the designer at my request which is really cool http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Airco_DH.2 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Airco_DH.2) >:DGinger Title: Re: World War I in the air Post by: EvilGinger on 06 January 2013, 14:40:31 Rather tapping my fingers now, waiting for these beauties to wing their way over the pond
>:DGinger Title: Re: World War I in the air Post by: EvilGinger on 24 January 2013, 07:52:36 not here yet & I really need to put in another order as I have realised that I have mused off the DH2 for a start & I have really got into play testing Algernon pulls it off again & its not the same using counters.
(http://toofatlardies.co.uk/blog/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/Algy-Header.jpg) I will add that the rules will work with Wings of War AKA Wings of Glory sized planes & that Shapeways do an even larger selection of those to fill the gaps in the existing range just get them in something other than WSF material >:DGinger Title: Re: World War I in the air Post by: EvilGinger on 30 January 2013, 20:50:47 My first shapeway's order should arrive at Spirit Games tomorrow it is missing the DH2 I forgot to order the Habersdat DII which needs revising before it prints so it should consist of four Rumpler C1's four Focker DII's four Fe2B's & four Be2's I will post pictures as soon as I can.
