I ordered the Cobblestone Streets map from Drivethrurpg here – link

I had it printed as a 5 x 3 banner (to fit my dining table) here – bannerprintingandroid.co.uk – for £25.08 GBP including postage.

Finally got it out on the table.

Looks nice, but I always have the "What if I want to change the layout around?" problem with printed streets on mats…

Looks fabulous. In the photo it even looks like there is texture.

What size figures are in your photos?

Fantastically done. Happy gaming!

The figures are all 28mm from a variety of sources. I tried with scenery covering the streets and square to break up the layout. I didn't take a picture of it, but the roads exiting on the right (top picture) were covered over by a river.

Do you think it would work for 54mm? I am looking for a solution for a cobblestone mat for playing small scale WW2 skirmish and this might work okay…

Looks great!
Is there a similar product available for a sci-fi urban setting? Printing a big banner might be just the thing for my uses. Also, what specs did you give them as far as material, edging, etc.

As for the product you purchased, It does seem a bit odd that it is 42x60 inches (3.5x5 feet), when 48x72 (4x6) is one of the most common sizes of wargaming tables.

I'm looking for a suitable sci-fi urban mat as well. The size was an odd one, but it worked in my favour with my 5 x 3 table. The only instructions I gave the printers was no seams or eyelets.

I would have to check, but I think the PDF has a high DPI number, so it could be scaled up for 54 mm.

Very nice

I notice that Deep Cut Studios produce this mat under license if you want to buy it ready printed:

£39.90 GBP + postage for a 6 x 4 version

They also do SF Urban mats

I did look at Deep Cut. However, I needed 5 x 3 which is an unusual size. I like the sci-fi urban mats, just wish they were less damaged! Someone must do a simple modern city style mat somewhere?

£40.00 GBP for a 6x4 printed on vinyl, delivered.
