Doucefeuille 73 Posted May 25, 2017 Report Share Posted May 25, 2017 (edited) With lot of miniatures I struggled to have something easy to use. First, I,ve tryed a pimp with foam board. But with children it was to fragile... And it was not so easy to use, as we have to put upper trays on the side to take miniatures.... The foam insert was not an option, it take too much space and it's not cheap ;) I've decided to make one little box for each army (pirats, guards, archers, picts etc) and to have each box visible when opening the box. The game box is near 30*40*10, and the minis have a base near 2.5cm, I chose to make 15*10*3(6) cm boxes, and this format seems perfect to make books shape boxes! minis don't move with some magnets 1 month later, 1/2L glue, 3m2 of grey board, 5m2 of paper and 2kg of leather off cuts.... Every miniatures are in the 2 boxes (SG, add-ons, extensions) the color of the leather show me what is inside (grey for nordheim, beige for stygia, red for demons, stiches for the pict, yellow for hyenas etc.) I just keep the heros in a tray (on the back there is an other tray with vilains and their tiles) I use wall paper with a old wood design to cover the grey board inside the big boxes, for the heros/vilains trays eand for the skelos book. The maps are on an extension box and the skelos book have is own box (with tokens, cards, dice etc) Edited May 25, 2017 by Doucefeuille 9 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

evandariel 4 Posted September 8, 2017 Report Share Posted September 8, 2017 I'll probably steal your overlord box! For the minis, I plan to just use the same storage trays I use for all my other minis, except with conan in it's own box. Like MB:P when it comes. I like to use minis everywhere so I use same system for everything. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
evandariel 4 Posted January 16, 2018 Report Share Posted January 16, 2018 question: did you make overlord box from scratch or buy something? 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Doucefeuille 73 Posted January 17, 2018 Author Report Share Posted January 17, 2018 Hi! For the Overlord box, I just used the card box in which there were the miniatures, it's the correct size. I've glued the small edges and opened the front side I made the 3 drawers with cardboard from "do not bend" letters. And I recovered all the cardboard with a wood wall paper. I made a previous box for the Skelos book, but I was not happy with 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
