Great work to get published. That looks like a fantastic resource Tony.

I'd be interested in a copy. I really prefer a hardcopy book to my computer screen! ;)

A sample article would be nice, as would a table of contents.

Well done - there's a world of difference, in my experience, between deciding to write a book, and actually getting the thing published!

Congratulations again!

Looks good Tony.
On the basis of your brilliant work on those half-timbered medieval buildings for Grand Manner, I'm sure this book will be an absolute gem, and I'd like to order one please :)
Keep us posted when available.

Cheers.

Hi Tony, with regard to the foam you use, you mention the pink foam is available from builders merchants - I couldn't find any in B&Q when I popped in the other day, so was wondering if you could perhaps provide a url to an example of the foam?

Received copy 17, today and was very pleased with the content especially the usage of the "goop", other filler related materials and das clay.

Looking forward in trying some of these methods myself.  ;)

The foam I use comes from a reclamation yard. It costs next to nothing and comes in a wide variety of shapes and sizes.

Try looking for it at a builders merchants.

I do know that the Blue, Pink and Green foam is made by Owens Corning and called Foamular and than a number dependant on the particular foam.

For details go to this link;

I hope that this helps.

Not all B&Q seem to stock it, and you've a limited chance of finding staff that know what it is (or more importantly, what they call it on their stock computer).
The last time I saw any, it was in packs of (4?) sheets approx 450mm by 1200mm, and sold as insulation boards.
