Breaking off the War at Sea Planes from stands and using them for Revised ?
-
I just bought a load of War at Sea Miniatures what were all planes. My intention is of course not to use the planes for playing the War at Sea game, but break off the planes from the plastic stand and use the painted planes for the Revised and AARHE game map…Has anybody done this? Can the planes be broken off the stand in a way that they are not damaged>?
I bought destroyers and cruisers too because the scale is still within the scale of Revised pieces, while the Carriers and battleships are way too large.

I don’t have experience with those models. But I found some 1/700 scale aircraft made by Trumpet http://www.hobbylinc.com/htm/tsm/tsm03418.htm?source=froogle I found these to work well with A&A.
-
I have like 300 of those. I latter decided that i wanted something in plastic that would stand above land units in cramped places or to replace carrier based aircraft to enhance the aesthetic.
I will unleash lots of pictures soon of this 6 month long project to get all my pieces painted. They are incredible… most easily the best anybody will ever see done.

Try heating an exacto knife and cutting them off.
-
I am keeping them on the stand and using them to seperate them for naval fighters because the sea zones are larger, while on land the stands take up too much space.
-
Great Idea, I haven’t picked up any WAS, how does the size of the planes compare to the stock A&A fighters?
-
they are a little smaller
-
Sounds perfect for the ACs have you figured a way to put magnets in them?
-
I only got my ultimate painted metal set last Thursday. Tomorrow i pick up German luftwaffe and Kreigmarine.
I may do the magnet thing… not sure until everything is ready.
