New Source for Cobblestone...
« on: 27 April 2014, 04:21:16 PM »
Went into B&Q earlier and found a great roll of wallpaper-



The 'cobbles' are 3D and the perfect size for 28mm. It could also be used for putting on model buildings as bricks :) Its 'super fresco' pattern No. 18939 Aaron mushroom. And the roll is 10.05m x 0.52m

You had me at cobblestones…… Very nice find, the only problem is if I tell the Mrs I'm off to B&Q to buy wallpaper she might get the idea that its for home improvements rather than game improvements lol.

Wlkinsons also have some that's very similar, as do B&M Bargains. I bought a roll that should last me food ages (ever probably!).

Nice one! I wonder how much it would cost to ship a roll across the Pond...?   ;)

I had the same thought! Wish I could find some similar textured paper around here!

Nice find. That looks far better than the one I was going to use. I'll go have a look on Wednesday.
