So, a few years ago I was walking by a stationary store during October and saw this cool confetti in the window. Lightbulb! I had an idea. Bat swarms!
Over the years I've made these for different games, friends and family, etc. Thought it was time to do a tutorial. This tutorial goes over all the basics I've learned (some the hard way) and how I based this particular unit, for Kings of War.
For the full tutoral, flitter on over to my blog link |

I am always so impressed with talented people who can provide a well documented step by step process. You also provide info on the parts you purchased… So well done, and so for all of us wargamers; appreciate it! |

Chairtwosqueaky- Thanks very much. It's really pretty easy, but when you have to document everything, its amazing how much you have to write. :) Glad it was not too beardy. Cheers!

By bending the wings first, you could glue bats to bats to bats and biuld up a menacing 3D swarm. You may not need pins at all, just gluing the lower bats directly to the bace. They could be flying out from a gap in the rocks. Saw a few typos around the cork and painting parts. |

Yes. The idea of them swarming the enemy is also good. |
