I love 28mm models used as statues of heroes in Epic or Warmaster.

Forge World used to do a statue tower but that is now rare and expensive on eBay.

Surely another provider of resin produces nice little plinths (or tall ones!) suitable as terrain for Epic nowadays, any suggestions?

I did one, but never printed it.

Did small ones too, for 6mm scale figures.

It could be any size. I could resize it.

Currently the green part is 42mm high. The top and the bottom are around 5mm each.

I also had some braziers. Just need to sculpt a little fire in them. :D

Wow!

So those would be the right size for a small model on top. I was imagining the kind that Forge World used to make:

I believe they were large enough to put a plastic 28mm figure on the top.

as this is still scalable, I could make it bigger. The base on top is 17mm across.

I have no marines around, just an inquisitor. It spreads its legs to 20mm approximately.

I can make some variants if there is real interest.

also made some braziers last year.

As I did them in 123D design and my Mac is packed up in the garage, I can not access the files.

But redid it now. I was planning to use these on building corners, on top of slim pillars and next to a gate.

The fire would be done with greenstufff or cotton

I have one of the FW plinths and it should be ideal for a 40k model on top I expect. At least that's what I plan to do with it.
