I think I have pretty much all of the RL series in good condition that I've never really played. Send me a PM.

Have you had a look at Drew's Hive ships? http://www.geocities.com/Area51/Meteor/4155/hive/hivemain.html

How about a load of perimeter battles (1 on 1s) on a campaign map culminating in one large all-in last stand?

The other alternative is of course to make your own out of 6&10 mm MDF and some wood beading to make slots for two pains of sliding glass. Just get the depot to pre cut the MDF so you've got straight 90 cuts. SHould work out a lot cheaper.

I was looking at getting that glass cabinet last year, but instead settled on this glass CD rack from Ikea http://www.ikea.com/gb/en/catalog/products/00093136 The thinking being that I can get a lot more miniatures in it (don't need 1' between shelves), and takes up less floor space. I've got...

I bought 400 plastic counters off Flee-Bay a while back for about a fiver. 25mm by 5mm thick. I got them from these guys, but you may have to send them an e-mail asking if they have the blue/red sided ones in stock. These are slightly thicker, so will better hold wire posts...

Well once I've set on what I'm doing, I'll post up a link for people to download a copy of the PDF. As for top art, I've just printed this lot off on transparent decal paper, and sprayed fixer over it. I'll give them a test, along with the sharks teeth, to see how they work tomorrow.

Thanks Adrian, yes I did base them on the RAF crest, I thought it would sort of unify them a little. That German link is also useful. Might dump the motto and just stick with the names. The major issue has been to get these to print centrally onto the labels, even with the bleed around the...

It was a Google translation of "With vodka we fly". Some of those are made up, some aren't. Just working things out at the moment. Like whether it's all a waste of time LOL. Work in progress with some test shots. Still working out how to paint all the fighters without losing the will to live...

Avenger looks better with added on weapons.

Close ups.

An update with where I'm at with this. First 10 squadrons done. Artwork for sharks teeth on Thunderbolts. Decided pin-ups for tops of fighters was a no go-er, too small to see anything, maybe true of sharks teeth. Anyway....

Cheers for that. Isolating those should be reasonably easy. The squadron logo was to be printed on self adhesive round label sheets, to be used as for the base of the flight, not for the actual model fighter. For the 'nose art' I'll knock up a load of cartoons and pin up girls to be printed on...

Thanks, I found the Wiki page last night. Especially useful for the .png cut out badges.

Don't get me wrong, I'd rather do international squadron logos, it's just that I can't find any. All the RAF insignia have crowns on them, which may look cool I guess, but just seem wrong for the EA setting. If you can locate any clip art, post a link and I'll stick them on the PDF sheet which...
