I have the "Army Painter" tuft 6mm stuff, but I need something shorter. Is ther someplace that sells the Silhouette miniNatur line? Or is there someplace that has something like it?

I don't know if this would be too small, but Bacchus sell basing covers designed for their 6mm figs:

I guess you are from the US, so it might be harder for you. I know that in the Americas MiniNatur is sometimes still called by its former name, Silflor. You might try to search by that name too.

I do not have any experience with this retailer, but that is what I found in the US.

I hope it helps.

For European retailers, just ask and I can send you some links.

Ah, perfect, that is what I am looking for. Hope they are shorter then 6mm, around 3mm height is what I am shooting for. I need to get this army done so I can work on something else.

If they have full supply, they should have 2 and 4mm. Enjoy!

This is a strange concept - finishing one thing before starting another?!

On my painting table at the moment I have 15mm Italian Condotta Knights for FoG, 28mm SYW Austrian Cuirassiers, 15mm WW2 German AT Guns and British Ships for Dystopian Wars. I obviously like a lot of variety in my painting.

Regards
Martin

Well if you must know, this is what I need to get done, Warhammer Fantasy Beast men, Wood Elese and a Big Spider, FOW Germans, Russian, American Armored Rifle Company, 82nd Airborn, North Vietnam Regulars, Malifaux, those fantasy ships from Spartan Games, some little Mice,... the List goes on and on. Reason I put my mind to just finishing off an army one at a time. Doing my best not to buy more stuff till I get stuff done. It's like fighting a 10 foot wave sittng on a stool. =p

Finish something! You'll go mad. I have had the remains (about 2 legions and some aux and cav at 1:50) of the eastern Roman filed army circa 350 to paint since about 1989. Since then I have started at least 20 anciant armies, and a few FoW ones. None of them are finished.
