Here's a pictures of all the "Dungeon Floor Tiles" I've done so far. It occurs to me that I could also use the bottom of the wooden box and trays I use to store figures as supplementary rooms or wider corridors… all I need now is to find a cheap source for model stairs ;)

Threw it with the bath water? ;D

Seriously thought, I give it to a friends of mine who’s going to have her first baby in January… Her boyfriend, also a friend of mine, is supposed to send me pictures of the figures I painted for them (which include the baby mini).

Thanks for the comments! 8)

Agree, there's some nice diverse figures here.

This is what I've done during the Holidays... I tripped and knock over a box of 144 half painted AWI figures. That's the end result ;)

Late to the thread - and ugh to the tripped box - but check out your light source.  It is almost certainly the reason for the excess yellow in your photos.  Find a kelvin temperature scale and check your source of bulbs for technical data to determine what it's temperature is and that should lead you towards 'truer' colors.  I once saw an orange (the fruit) tuned black as night just by changing the color of the light hitting it.  Daylight color bulbs seem to work best if you can find them and they'll work in whatever is generating your light (type of fixture).

Test figures of French Infantry and Corps Franc figures. The rifle is a semi-automatic F.A. Modèle 1917 and the SMG an Erma...



Sorry for the dark picture

All my home made "Dungeon" tiles so far… I just need to buy more step (or ladders) sets… The thicker tiles are in fact wood box (bottoms and lids). The "grey room" with the bookshelves on is hollow and the other side is painted as a blood or magma pool with a stone grey walkway all around it… each square on these tiles are roughly 1" x 1"
