Sorry if this is a dumb question, but what can I do if I want something around the scale of 1:4000? Buy a 3D printer? Are they even accurate enough with dimensions and colors at those kinds of scales?
Basically, I'd like to be able to build something similar to an entire battle scene on a single desk. It would be nice to see both sides of a fight, big terrain features, infrastructure and railways all in a single build, so I'm thinking 1:4000 would be the scale to go for. More conventional stuff like assembling your own diorama with a single vehicle and some soldiers around it also seems interesting, but it's not what I'm looking for right now.
Also, I'm pretty sure there was a model railways thread around here somewhere, do you guys happen to know how it died? I'd have thought that such an autistic hobby would be pretty popular on 4chan.
