Hello everybody

Two modelling ideas I wanted to share with you.

1) Dummy counters:
Fold small boxes out of paper or thin transparent plastic, paint and 
flock to look like camouflage netting and use instead of dummy 
counters. You can hide your minis inside or leave them empty. If you 
leave the rear side open, you can look inside while your opponent 
doesn't see anything. 

The transparent blisters used for fantasy figures could also serve this 
purpose. 

Mainly useful for small scale minis, but you could even use them for 
SG. Just lay the figures down inside. 

2) Cammo tabletop
With the present fashion for camouflage patterned clothing (at least in 
my part of the world), you see girls in all kind of cammo clothing of 
decidedly unmilitary cut. 

This has the benefit that you can buy cammo cloth by the yard at 
reasonable prices. Makes for a change from dull plain green felt 
tabletops. 

Greetings
