Love it  :D

Needs more thatch  ;D

I would go for road strips, more useful. If they are on a mat then it's a bit restrictive.

Wonderful set up.  :-* :-* :-*
 I agree with James about the road on strips.  Much more useful if you want the set-up to be altered for different games.

The pinfold, which was a small enclosure used by a village for ‘locking up’ stray livestock  until a release fee was paid by the negligent owner

Until he became Dangermouse's assistant, of course.

Lovely buildings.

I actually vote against road strips.
Permanent roads on the boards will just look so much better / more realistic!

Re: 17thC England: UD 30/3: hills (wip)

Thanks all. :D

I mentioned before that the terrain elements I’m working on include some hill pieces.

These are actually a reboot of the set of hills I made before, which can be seen in these photos taken by Captain Blood in 2012:



There are 4 parts to the piece, that can be used in a variety of ways.

My terrain making has come on a bit in the last 8 years, thus the reboot.

I ripped off the scouring pad bushes as these will be replaced with rubberised horsehair.
The next step was to compensate for any warping with a smear of milliput to the base edge, then I tightened up the joins with repair plaster, which when nearly cured was cut to separate the parts. I then added glue and sand to texture the plaster.



More to come
