Using 1/35 scale weapons with 28mm models.
« on: February 02, 2020, 03:33:49 PM »
Just wanted to know how well 1/35 scale weapons sit with 28mm models? I understand they can generally work well but am a little concerned about them looking a bit slim in 28mm hands. Looking to use them with some Heresy sci-fi troopers if that helps give an idea of what I'm trying to match them up with.

I suspect they are going to look a bit large.

These are an M2 and a Vickers from the Warlord Automated Infantry sitting on a sprue of 1/35 modern weapons.

Someone asked about the size of the Automated Infantry weapons a while back.

The Warlord weapons scale out at 1/48 and 1/45.


Warlord compared to an M2 and a Vickers from Empress.
