[beefcake]

Really liking that. Can't wait to see them finished 

[Suber]

The concept is simply great. But the execution.... Woooo

[Engel]

Great start. Will be nice to follow this.

Maybe some Bayourks from warploque miniatures could fit in ?

Stop spoiling us, Andy!

What do you use for the terrain bases by the way? I've been trying to find something new that can be easily cut, but doesn't cost me a small fortune after a while (ie Plastic Card).

I will be watching this closely I love it!

Cheers for the very kind words gents!!!

I've started using hardboard recently bud. I've got a sheet of it in the house that I cut a base from anytime I begin a new model. I like the weighty-ness of it AND it doesn't warp. If you go to B&Q you can often pick up the cheap off cuts as well.

AND it doesn't warp.

It most certainly can warp, I have several pieces to attest for that. It takes very well to the PVA newspaper straightening method though.

Looking great already

[Alcidas]

yup really nice

These are very fine looking dwellings. I'm very keen to see the finished product!

Regarding basing material I would like to suggest 3mm foam pvc. It can be easily cut with a craft knife or Stanley blade and, despite it's thinness, does not warp no matter how much watered-down PVA you slosh on it (it ain't porous, see?). Check ebay where you can pick up single A4 sheets for £1 (plus postage). I've been using it for a couple of years now and have based some serious terrain on it (including a three-storey resin tower) with no problems whatsoever. I recommend everyone gives it a try!

same for me. The only cons is the glue: PVA glue doesn't grip properly on the foamed pvc, some drops of cyanacrilic might be appropriate.

I reckon that my deathmix of some sand, PVA and filler will do the job. It's sturdy as concrete when dry
