Crazy.  ;D

But, got me to thinking how impressive that would look on a board for the Batman miniatures game..

Had a bit of fun yesterday with some elastic-trickery  :)

I'm thinking that when this eventually gets played on it will be interesting to play it with the house lights off and only use the board lights.


Mr Silent Invader did the very same thing with his rather brilliant Aliens game and board.

Now, enough electrics - back to your Freys! ;)

I thank you.  :). Lots of fun can be had in night time games, especially when minis in the shadows get overlooked. Funnily I've started reworking that Aliens board for another nighttime project.  ;) Yes, another project.  :D

I really like those street lights James: very effective with a great ambience.

I'll be impressed when you start putting real gas lamps in your vsf stuff.  :P

Beilliant, mate.
 :-* :-*


(Ya mad bugger, but we all know that already).


You had better be careful when it comes to turning the lights dpwn, though.....
The thought of the voice of Silent Invader appearing unexpectedly in your ear saying: 'I'm behind you!' could be quite unnerving!
You have been warned.
 ;D ;D

This is such an amazing project. I don't envy all the hard work that needs to be committed in order to have such first class results! I saw you stocking the store shelves. Miniatures building authority has some useful commercial pieces as well. Maybe that will help. I raised the shelves a bit with foam.
