That submarine is excellent -  a perfect compromise between a scale and a gaming model.

And that clipper is a beauty - you said on the blog that it is "fabric over a framework". Do you mean "fabric" as in "cloth"? I've never heard of that used for anything but actually flying models. Must have cost you a fortune.

[Major Payne]

Yes, actual fabric over frame.  I'm always very careful when taking to the club.  The model does't fly.

I paid $269.98 for it several years ago minus 10% for minor damage which I repaired.  Appears the price has gone up.

Check out the Airship at the site.  Fantastic aside from the fin flash which is a cross rather than a swastica.  I'm working on my own.

Very cool on display but small to scale at about 1/200 scale.

Your rope bridge looks really cool. I've been wanting to build one of those for... way too long.

Beautiful board and fun looking scenario. Thanks for sharing the link!

Magnificent stuff so far! I love the jungle terrain, and that Clipper is awesome! I really must add a flying boat to my collection of pulp gaming props, although I'm afraid your Clipper is wildly out of my price range!

When you update the new website, please update this thread too to remind us.

[Major Payne]

Thanks for all the encouragement.  I worked up a page with a bit more information on the rope bridge.  Sorry - I can't post pictures directly to the forum but I really value all of your inputs.

Great terrain, minis and VEHICLES!!! Congratulations

Looks great.

Is Intelegence German for Intelligence then? 

[Major Payne]

I'm sure I don't know what you're talking about.    Thanks - Just figured out a 'work around' for spell check.  Likely too much model glue and not enough home work in school.

All of your stuff looks really great. If you want to stain the rope on your bridge, I would suggest a little coffee or dark tea.

That sub is fantastic, I've got a Revell 72nd scale that I want to convert, wasn't sure how to make the conning tower, until now!

Glad to help.

Here's a new page regarding the next game scheduled featuring the gunboat 'San Pablo."

Awe inspiring stuff. I felt like I was taking a tour around a film set rather than looking at a wargames table, the San Pablo is mouthwateringly yummy. Hats off to you sir!!
