Telegraph Poles in 20mm

 A quick and easy project - telegraph poles from Auhagen.
They're made with the railway hobby in mind, and are in HO scale (1:87) but they do work very well with my 20mm figures,
Each box comes with 12 poles, and I made a mix of desert themed ones and ordinary grass-flocked ones.
Paints used
Wood: Vallejo 983 Flat Earth, washed with Citadel Devlan Mud and drybrushed Vallejo 987 Medium Grey.
Metal: Citadel Tin Bitz and roughly over-painted with Vallejo 865 Oily Steel.
Isolators: Vallejo 993 White Grey
A very fast way of getting a lot of very handy terrain details. Higly recommended.

  1. The double poles are suitable for Normandy, or so I'm told.

    1. I actually have one of the reinforced ones right outside my house - good reference material.
      Each box is 6+6 poles, and I've bought 2 boxes. The 'double' ones are unbuilt so far.

  2. Those are really nice and will add a lot to the gaming table.
