Pak 40 with scenic base (maybe)
Need moar Ammo!!
To add some details to the base I wanted to make some ammo crates.
My first attempt I cut pieces of 3mm square wood strips from the hobby shop and glued them in a 3×3 box. For supports I cut pieces of coffee stirrer and glued them on. After finishing, I thought the proportions looked out – it should be shallower. Also it was a very fiddly process.
So for the 2nd attempt I just used 5mm foam board cut into rectangles and for the supports used strips of card left over from the details panel of an mdf kit. Think the 2nd attempt looks better and much much easier to make. I’ll try to score the edges to simulate wood grain and see how they are when painted.
