Hi
As an on-going development of the airstrip base I'm playing around with, I hope to add a few items, such as ammo boxes etc. I'd like to place a pilot relaxing on a chair...a rocking chair would be good or a stuffed armchair preferably Germanesque or European...and wondered if there were any dolls house stuff available that would fit in with 1/72nd scale?
Or is it a case of scratch building?

Thanks
Peter

THree options.
Best one is the Preiser 1/72 Luftwaffe set. There's a pilot sculpted to be sitting in a chair and the chair as well.
If that doesn't fit the bill, try looking in a good railroad modeling shop or got to Walthers. THey may have some HO furniture, a bit small, but it might do the trick.
If all else fails, there's scratchbuilding.

Also check out your local train store - they may have some things available.

Check the gaming stores and websites out. Look for 20-25mm items.
Here is some printable items.
