Brick work was a slaters English bond 7mm sheet painted buff colour for mortar then a dry brush of orange/brown mix. I tried to use the method described by Thunderchicken who did a great tutorial somewhere on here, his brick work is way way better than my attempt so its worth a look.

Have you played them? Any good?

Have to declare an interest as I did some of the playtesting on them but they're brilliant and every home should have a set  ;)

Seriously, they're fun, dead easy to pick up and capture the essence really well  8)

Just to derail slightly from the brilliant pictures..

@dags. Roughly what's the minimum size 'firm' needed to play?

Little update the gate section is nearly built just pavement and painting to do.
Had a nightmare getting the angles right a mixture of planning and messing about got it done.

Great. Did they have a demo game going? It was seeing their display stand that made me want to start my build.

Yeah, they had a game going before I had to leave. Table looked great, I can see where the inspiration came from.  ;)

Few update pics. Of the exit gate. Pavement and graffiti on gate to add,painting signs freehand took forever. Think I'm gonna put some railings on top of wall thinking of getting plastic ladders cut off one side to make them.

The corner terrace coming along a bit. Roof as  been a challenge though. There will be one more of these to finish the corner slightly different maybe seated.

Then the corner of the pitch with a couple of players, photographer and sub warming up amongst other ideas. Also a subbuteo floodlight.
