Perry British and French Casualty bases
« on: May 02, 2014, 02:28:18 AM »
Hi
Been painting more of these. Aim is to have enough to eliminate dice and plastic markers on my wargames table.

Please pop over to see more.
Cheers
Brian

Very nice.  Where are the dials from?

Saw these on TMP as well. They are absolutely spectacular. I am extremely impressed. What creative uses of dead figures.  They will really set your gaming table apart from others. Thanks for sharing.

They are from Warbases. They do two styles - one with the little turning lug and one without. With my fat fingers I prefer the turning lug.

Appreciate the comments - I certainly hope they make the table look a bit less cluttered with non-miniatures stuff.

I had seen these dials on the Warbases site but hadn't really given them much thought ,but your excellent work has certainly made me aware of their possibilities,may get a few.

How did you get the white on the number part ... I have several of these counters ... can you pull them apart to get paint down there?

Perhaps they are different now - improved if you will. They have the numbers printed on paper and glued to the centre layer.  Like most manufacturers of things miniature, a better image on their website would help.

I prised on apart to see how it went together and you could easily glue on a number printed on white paper in the appropriate place (turn the ring over to hid the laser engraved number) - then glue again.

Is that the 30mm or 40mm casualty base?
