Title: Best and SMALLEST 6mm range for WWI?
Post by: GilmoreDK on 05 March 2016, 12:09:46 PM

Hi all

I am looking for a range of 1/285 minis that actually live up to the scale (or preferable is a bit smaller).. Also ones that not cast with ugly and very high bases... I need 1917-1918 French, Brits and German.
Anyone who has experience with which company to look for?

Heroics/Ros for the Infantry, Artillery and Aircraft and Scotia MicroModels for the Tanks.
H&R do a good range of tanks as well but the Scotia ones have the edge in detail.

These are both 1/300 ranges and NOT COMPATIBLE with the larger US 1/285 scale.

Thanks.. Will look into it.. It seems that no matter the company i will have to sand the bases on a belt sander as all of them seem much to high for my tastes..

Not with these. H/R inf bases are virtually non existent and the vehicles (both ranges) have no bases at all.
