A view from the opposite angle. I still have to do something with the foamboard base (maybe paint it black? Cover with tape?) to remove that rough look.
For the minis, I used a double sided tape that has a layer of "foam" in it. It is a technique suggested by Parduz at the Cardboard Warriors forum and I like the results: especially at this reduced scale the thick minis feel a little more "three-dimensional."
I also printed a full-size version of the Camel but I still have to finish building it so for now that's it.

Nice work. I think just painting the base edge black or gray will look fine. Happy New Year!
Thanks for the comment, Sean! I'll try painting it in some dark gray tone.
Hi,
Hidden away among the offerings at Wargame Vault is a gem entitled "Monster of the Game Mat: Alien Assault". For the trifling sum of $.50 USD, you get two complete paper armies which include infantry with a variety of weapons and a heavy mech, plus a smoke screen, sandbags, and buildings!
I bought my copy last year, and consider it the best fifty cents I ever spent.
Best regards,
Chris
Hey Chris, thanks for reminding me of this. I got the Total Chaos pack some time ago and I had forgotten about these soldiers. They will be perfect for some armies I'm making at reduced scale!
