Tabletop Towns - Neat idea
« on: 14 January 2013, 10:14:57 PM »
Saw this on TMP:

http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1680924898/tabletop-towns?ref=search

Personally I think it's a neat idea.  The conversation in the TMP thread says that these are demo buildings and that the 'real' ones will be made of a higher grade card.  I've often been tempted by card buildings, even bought a bunch of .pdfs from Worldworks or someone a while back.  But did I have the time to do anything with them?  Of course not!!  I had grandiose plans of mounting them on foamcore etc etc.  These ready to use out of the box buildings may just be the timesaving, table filling solution I need.

Good luck to them , I'll certainly be watching to see how they do.

Presumably they are printed on credit cards.

3 a 0 no Liverpool
Ficou marcado na história
E no Rio não tem outro igual
Só o Flamengo é campeão mundial
E agora seu povo

Hmmmm.... They look a bit pony to me. In terms of card stock I've been eyeing up dave Graffams stuff for a while, they look pure quality.

The sickle in the fruitful field;
The sword he sung a song of death,
But could not make the sickle yield."
