Here is the castle set from Dollar Tree stretched across my outdoor table, four linear feet.
Later I got one more set and a second keep. This is seven sets and one keep. Less than $12 including tax.
Caesar Miniatures knights on guard on the wall. Given that you get one of these for a $1.25 it could be worth it to buy a lot of them to make a walled city, or the Great Wall of China, or Hadrian's Wall.
Focus on the near guard. These walkways are big enough for two figures in 1/72nd scale. Since they are intended to be molds, I suppose you could cast them in resin, cement, concrete, plaster, or even sand to make your own walls. Probably need a lot of mold release since they don't flex much.
Focus on far castle guards.
Small dragon I got a while back from Hobby Lobby. Got a whole flock of them for about $3. Several poses, designs, and different colors.
Three feet by the ruler. You can see the gaps in the wall pieces, I have not cut the rims off of these yet.
If they are cheap why not just paint them?
ReplyDeleteI think they'd look great painted!
ReplyDeleteQuantrilltoy, I anticipate painting them when the weather cools.
ReplyDeletejeifheff I am considering paint textures and colors for the next month or so when it is less humid and painting is easier.
