Force On Force's first supplement is called "Road To Baghdad". I am in need for more Iraqi looking terrain. I thought an "actual" road to Baghdad would just do, especially as it is used in some scenarios/missions.
Task Force 1-64 on its way to Baghdad.
I made the highway signs using styrene profiles and sheets from
Evergreen.
The actual signs came from a decal sheet from
TheSquare. They were applied onto 1mm styrene sheet and then glued into place.
This layout only displays a fast scene I set up for the pics. The gaming table for the scenarios will be twice this size to give the Americans a challenging distance to travel while being attacked from left and right.
These road signs aren't exactly in scale as they are from
Verlinden's range for dioramas in 1/35.
Nonetheless I think they fit just fine.
Another shot of the
Verlinden variant.
The roads are from
ESLO terrain of Germany. Lamp poles are 1/87 H0 scale and the telegraph poles from
Italeri.
TF 1-64 scanning for targets.
Just another generic shot from the miniature's perspective. :-D

Those signs do look good, give the right atmosphere to the road!
These are great, nice work.
Terrain looks great! Having been there myself, I can tell you the signs are PERFECT! I have pictures of my Battery's vehicles on Route "Tampa" (Iraq Highway 1) and your TF 1-64 signage is dead-on - takes me back to the sandbox!
Thanks, Steven!
Fantastic scenery & miniatures, very atmospheric!
