To post up to 100g of small things, like the trench rails, to the US is £3.15 for airmail.
All I can really do is lower my item prices since if I made postage cheaper, some of my items are priced low enough for me to be at a loss in some circumstances.

You could see if any one else wants any near you and group buy ? just a thought and I have to say they are worth the investment
Well, if bought, there may be a return on that airmail price! I will have to order the things all myself as I am in a gaming deadzone so to speak here where I am LDD
Hmmm, OMN, Please PM me a price index for the trench rails and emplacements, I may order me some anyway!

Thanks all, I suspect I might get that flight stand finished by the weekend.
Story time...
Now a few weeks ago, when DrH's round of the League terrain contest was running, I actually had an idea for an entry, but far too late to enter, after wandering into wilkos and seeing nice spherical toilet ball floats for the earth shattering sum of 99p.
Perfect for gas stores! Now these things are not small each is about 120mm diameter, so it'd take a while to make some sort for base walkways and other supporting structures around them, I'm wondering if I can twiddle it to enter the current round of the terrain contest. Possible? Ideas?
@magos: cheers mate, if I didn't think people enjoyed seeing these models, I'd stop posting them.
@LDD: Thats the original tacked on atm, I'm making my first moves on moulding it up along with all the other goodies.
Gas stores sounds cool. Lots of intricate framework about the place, and fit a trapdoor (or two) in somewhere and you're done.
How many spheres did you get? Are you going to have individual spheres, or stack one on top of the other to have one big gas store?

@Dr H: Cheers mate, I picked up 2, not that I wanted more mind you, as I say, they are large, actually I was thinking of building bulkier supports, more like the building piece used on the Valkyrie base, though I might get some frame work made to save space.
It'd have the two spheres roughly side by side, with a foot area something like 20 x 36 cm. Making the base for it might prove a problem.
Also they feel like they are Polystyrene, so less hassle to glue plasticard things to.
@graven: That might be the only way I can go on this graven.

Good point shas, but maybe with a bit more of this:
I'm going to call this batch of militia finished now, mold lines, wonky painting 'n' all:
Valk base done and dusted (ok no powders), my brushwork sucks of late but at least I got the colours how I want them [Genswick trooper pictured for scale]:
Very top quality work on the men there OMN! and the Swedish playing with their new Leopard was cool

Milita rock love the hazard lines on the back chain sword just gives the model that lift, also loving the ginger barnet
The stand turned out spot on you should really produce these better than the usual crappy bases you can get, also love the radio inspired by anything in particular ?

Well get on with it man
