You can make one very cheaply with pink stuff (insulation board) and a bread knife.

At Home Depot you can get a sheet of it for 10$

and make all kinds of terrain with it. Very simple to do.

Turns out that one of the pieces isn't flat, too! So, one side will be slightly bowed. LMAO I guess the slaves that built it had the last laugh!


As hitman says, you can probably heat and bend it.

I did what I could with epoxy putty and paintwork. It turned out OK. Not great, nothing to be super-proud of, but enough that I'm OK killing a Lurker in it's shadow. :)

Dependding on where you are and how much you want to spent on postage and such, tabletop-building.com has a very extensive range of Egyptian buildings, dungeon, temples and a pyramid/mastaba. I have seen and handled this stuff personally and it is extremely durable and very detailed.

Hi Legion, can't find them on that link? There is a .nl site but too far to consider for postage etc. If that is the site, and it looks very interesting, then is continually off line as well  >:(

But could not make the sickle yield."

He's renewing the website. The Egyptian stuff will be uploaded soon.

I know this, because my order will be shipped today ;)

Holy crap.

This guy is selling Hirst kits for 1/5 of what other guys are. I couldn't even buy the molds and Excalibur stone to make this stuff for as cheap.

My wife is going to hate you for this! :)

Malebolgia;
Stone House Miniatures is very nice as long as you don't let it sit in the sun as it melts..... :'(
