I've been using table place mats as bases for a while now after Old Goat suggested it. Now I'm having a bash at using drink coasters too, and the first one has turned out decent.

Some really nice looking terrain here. They sort of remind me of scenario terrain from the computer game Silent Storm (wich in its on way is a superb game with a really cool pulp feeling).

What are the coasters made of? Are they the bendy ones made of compressed bits of cork, or something else?

I'm curious as well. Most of the drink coasters I'm familiar with are the round wooden kind with absorbent cork glued on. Did you use several? Or was there a large square one? WIP pics would be neat. Nice job anyway, I love the effect you've achieved.

It must be a european thing.
Here we have cardboard beercoasters in our pubs.
just google for images with "bierviltje" as searchterm. you'll see.

These coasters are the ones with the cork lining underneath, they're rigid. They're the harder more permanent type. Here in the UK the coasters which are flexible, and typically made from cardboard are called beer mats.
