I've been brainstorming a bit on a terrain project. Anyone got the measurements for the Forge World Aeronautica Imperialis Imperial Airield pieces. More specifically the landing pads and the control tower?

Hi!

I've got the control tower and the small landing pad. I can take you some pictures and measurements. Might take an hour or two, though.

cheers,

I'm not at work at the mo and not on the forum much these days (20,000 words of dissertation to write in a month, eek) but I have all the different pieces and could measure up the big landing pad (or all of them) for you. I've emailed myself so I hopefully won't forget but feel free to prod me if I do. They are all excellent models.

'ere we go:

used a base of epic orks for size comparison.

dimensions:

the landing pad has a diameter of about 6cm

the platform for the tower is about 4.5cm in diameter, and the tower itself is around 7.8cm high.

that's it.
best regards,
Markus

PS: warping of parts is optional ;)

No pictures sorry but the dimensions of the big landing pad are 15.3cm long, 11.3cm wide, 1.5cm high. All the best with the project!

Thanks guys. :)

Well I'm not enturely sure if I'm going to proceed with it, but seeing some of the other fortresses people have been building recently, I really felt inspired to do something along those lines. I've also be meaning to build an airfield for quite some time, so I thought what the heck: Let's try and combine them. I found this at the local store:
http://www.ziterdes.de/ziterdes/en/prod ... ubcatID=68 Which I figured might make a pretty decent (if not entirely cheap) starting point. The detail is a bit crude, but it doesn't have a while lot of scale giveaways so it should be fairly easy to build upon and gubbinize.
