Quick Comparison: Blood Red Skies and Wings of Glory

A (long) while ago, someone asked about Wings of Glory (WoG)and Blood Red Skies (BRS) and how their planes compare. Well, Lucius painted up some BRS planes and so here they are. They are both nominally 1:200 and frankly I think they work well together.

The quality of WoG planes is lower than BRS, but their painting is good enough and you could touch them up. I haven’t yet.

We’re going to rebase all of our planes and do a floor-based version of Bag the Hun as we have loads of 1:200 planes. I’ll let you know how that goes as we slowly paint up planes and get the hexes and floor mat ready!

Not Gone!

Still here! It’s coming up on year since I’ve posted and that is really far too long. There are many reasons but suffice it to say that things have calmed down a fair bit.

We’ve played some “The One Ring” 2nd edition, as well as a few games of Chain of Command and even my first game of Battletech. Overall, though, there has been a lot of life getting in the way of fun.

Over the next week I’ll clean up the blog and also finally post some long-promised comparisons of Blood Red Skies and Wings of Glory planes. Then onto more routine gaming!

I was very impressed when I went through the Blitzkrieg models and will try to show a few quick pictures and details of the models I purchased. None of these models are assembled or have had any cleaning done – they are just as they are out of the box.
