Just a small project this time – a pilot for building some hills for the shed link
I think they work so more planned for the future |

Looks good. What scale figures do you plan on using with them? It might just be the angle of the photo, but it looks a little steep for 28mm figs. Smaller scales on group bases have a higher tolerance for steep inclines. |

And did those feet in ancient time
Walk upon England's mountain green?
Very nice. Well done. Thank you for sharing.

Good stuff … I have had extremely good results smoothing out polysterene board with sandpaper. You get quite a lot of annoying white fluff but it works much better than I expected when I gave it a go (I feared it might rip the surface away rather than smooth it off) … With this one I tried to get a mix of flat layers for playing over with rounded surfaces (knife first, then sandpaper) …
Worth a try? Phil |

Hi Folks The hills will be used for all scales – 10mm>28mm They are a little steep but it is a compromise putting a hill on the table that looks like a hill and not a bump. Never tried sandpapering polystyrene will try it when I build the next batch.. cheers |
