Pretty nice.  I recently painted mine and found a very reasonable two-colour scheme which worked out.  I'll be showing them off soon.  I like your conversions.

Great blog and awesome conversions!  People have done really cool stuff with their tiles!  One of my mates with a ton of floor tiles decided to glue the tables and chairs straight down.  I wasnt sure if I liked it at first because they're fixed now, but honestly, it was brilliant.  Havent tried the SW product, but the Vallejo water is very nice to work with as well, and if you screw up, you can always peel it away from the tile!  I plan to use it to make puddings, slimes  and such.

The Kickstarter was definitely very nice (essentially price of 2 kits = 3 kits + some bonus pieces).  I think the unpainted stuff is pretty close to worth the price.  The tiles are great.  They miss a lot of the character and charm of the resin pieces (and they're limited in size) but they're fantastic for flushing out sets and building general layouts.

I've been on/off with DF for 12 years and all of my sets have been purchased second hand on ebay because DF is unfortunately not very well run, and they never, ever...have anything in stock at their storefront.  This is frustrating as I would have bought another 10-15 sets a few years back when I had expendable income in excess.  I'm hoping that the game tiles KS's and renewed interest allow Stefan to actually sell some of the brilliant product he's designed.  It's incredibly frustrating when you want to buy a product which the company simply never stocks.

Here's hopin'...
