Italeri Bridge
« on: December 17, 2011, 12:46:28 PM »
Put some paint on one of these, they're 1/72 officially but I think it's a tad over-sized for that scale. So they might work for 28mm, especially if you're not too fussy about it? The LoTR minis would work great without their bases, with bases so-so. Maybe not so good for 30mm+ scales? Anyhow, something to consider, if you are looking for one.

It's there alright: http://www.italeri.com/scheda.asp?idProdotto=921&idCategoria=37&idSottocategoria=0

It's been around for a while, I dunno a year at least?

EDIT: actually, it's not in the shop itself, only in the catalogue? Might be out of stock, or maybe even sold out by now? I should think you can find one in modelling shops or ebay?

It's a nice simple little kit, only about five or six pieces. Trouble is that it is quite large, the width of thing makes it a bugger to use. Yes it does work well with 28mm.

Might be easy to make a narrower version by cutting some pieces down a bit?

Alas I didn't contemplate that before glueing mine together. I'll find a use for it someday.

Hmmm... That's a damned fine looking bridge.
Below is a link to my blog. It's the place where I write uninteresting things about little toy soldiers. I do this because I refuse to grow up and behave like an adult.

Thanks for sharing this. It's exactly what I was looking for and didn't know it existed.
