In case someone was looking for some, to spice up their ancient or alien temples … I think these might be the right size: auction 1/2" (13mm) approx size Wouldn't you say? picture picture Dan

Not an expert, but I think these would be awesome, for the smaller heads. They're 'shoulder' high; I gather larger would tower over our intrepid adventurers. Doug

Aren't there free papaer models on the HeavyGear (DP9) site?

Dunno. I'm not into paper. Dan

"Aren't there free papaer models on the HeavyGear (DP9) site?" I know they do/did resin Olmec, which would be good for REALLY LARGE heads for 15mm, but don't recall paper. Thanks for the tip. I'll try, but I'm not sanguine. From the home page, drilling down through Downloads, Heavy Gear Bitz…,Paper Terrain: PDF link Unlike Dan, I'll do paper, but never well… ;->= Plenty of other stuff worth a look, and your visits act as advertising, which rewards free stuff. Look around! Doug Edit: If I'm gauging right, these should stand about three to four or so inches high; and, resizing PDF images well is beyond my graphics-fu.

TheBeast, to resize hit print and you should have the options to set your print scaling under the advanced options. Scale how you'd like.

The listing says they're ceramic; is there going to be any easy way to cut them in half, for the bas-relief temple decoration idea from CC's first post? I've never really messed with anything like that but my gut instinct is that they'd shatter before they'd cut, what do you guys think?

I think you should cut a recess in the wall, probably, and fit them in that way. Use some filler or putty to fill in around so it juts out the way you want.
