That looks really good  8)

The versatility must be off the charts and the combinations endless; that's a complete colony/factory table right there.

Great work!  :)

I think that looks quite good and very playable! I really like how you have made a large pool of modular parts, like ramps and stairs, that work with most (maybe all?) of the box buildings.

The only thing I would expect to see more of is doors and windows on the buildings, but I don’t think that’s really a problem for this kind of individual structure- those often have fewer doors and windows than residential or commercial buildings. Adding doors and windows probably would limit how the build parts can be placed, so leaving them off makes sense, especially if the buildings are mainly for blocking line of sight and providing elevated ground in your games.

 lol

No, I didn't, but I'm thinking now that that'll be a nice idea for the future, using my kids  drawings as grafitti that is.

Thanks for the comments.

Do you magnetize the ramp or just cut it shallow enough for models to stand up?

I base most of my stuff on fender washers, and have considered using magnetic paint for slanted surfaces (it isn't very strong, so they shouldn't get stuck).

I base most of my stuff on fender washers, and have considered using magnetic paint for slanted surfaces (it isn't very strong, so they shouldn't get stuck).

I just cut it at a shallow enough angle to prevent them sliding or toppling over. Additionally, I painted them with sponges which gave them a light texture and helps stop any slipping down the ramps.

Thanks again for the feedback.
