Thanks for this LT! Just ordered a sheet to try it out. If it works, I’m sure Jamie will be buying a lot of it for the mini Rome he is currently buildinglevied troop wrote: ↑Wed Feb 19, 2020 4:06 pm Slaters do plastic pantiles (and other stuff). I’ve used code 0440 on the link below:

It's gonna take a lot of Vikings to take out that mortar.Shahbahraz wrote: ↑Thu Feb 20, 2020 2:00 am Lucky You! That's a great score. The War & Empire III Kickstarter delivered so I have hundreds of 15mm Vikings and Later Romans to clean up and paint. Plus about the ugliest cast I've seen in a while, the Warlord Games US Paratrooper mortar crew...

Wills are prettier (although that link from ET looked nice) but I found the Slaters stuff easier to cut Plastic drinking straws are also your friend, they make good ridge tiles.
I get lockdown, but I get up again.

Haven't they banned them for some ecological reason?

Circular economy mate. If LTs using them for buildings there will be no more straws dumped in the oceans.

Re: What's on your workbench?
That looks pretty good. I found with my scifi corridors that increasing the 'grid' size to accommodate larger based figures can lead to it looking out of scale.
If your guys bases fit fine on the 25mm paving then stick with it, most people use bases that size in any case, so why sacrifice beauty for the occasional awkward git with oversized bases

That’s brilliant Simon!
