A while back hasbro had this checkpoint dio which had chainlink fence.

 

I actually have that set lol. Somewhere in the attic.

 

I found some at OPSGEAR.

But really, go to Home Depot or Lowe's. Look for wall plasterer's mesh, or any of the mesh that's used by roofers.

The way to go with dioramas is to buy it for a whole lot cheaper at the home DIY store.

 

Thanks skypilot777
I think I'll try Home Depot. I'm looking at a 180 foot outer perimeter at 18 inches high.

 

I think that there may be some wedding "veil" material which can be spray painted silver as well. Look for it at your neighborhood fabrics store.

That's what I use for my 1/35 military model dioramas. For 1/6th just look for a larger "link" scale.

I'm down with this method

 

"I think I'll try Home Depot. I'm looking at a 180 foot outer perimeter at 18 inches high"

180 feet!!!!!! Wow that IS huge!!!!

 

Try OPSGEAR they have a fence in the 1/6th stuff

 

For stuff like that you'll pay through the nose at Opsgear, get it from the home centers or hardware stores and put the money you save into some more figures, parts or food maybe.

 

I am possibly looking for chain link fences in the 1/6th scale in order to possibly do a diorama for a MSG (Marine Security Guard) at an embassy, any ideas?

 

I made one. Check out my post...

GI Joe made portions of a chain link fence in one of their vietnam sets from the late 90's or early zips.

 

Thanks for the info guys and I am currently looking for chain link and concertina wire

 

Concertina would be of great interest to me. Plenty of barbwire out there but military grade razor wire would be a HUGE find.

As for chainlink fence Home Depot and Lowe's are your best bets. I've seen some black plastic stuff in rolls but it was short (maybe 8" wide). If you find something let us know also take down as much info on stuff that isn't wide enough and do a web search.

 

I think that fabric material is called tulle. It's like what Dusty from the GI Joe RAH original 3.75 figure came with.
