More great stuff. My pub has arrived but I've not had time this week to do anything with it.  :'(

We have just added a set of UK style roads range has been designed to be compatible with our range of photo realistic buildings.

The buildings all come with a 200mm x 300mm base. This base area can be extended to 200mm x 400mm with an optional additional garden or yard area.

Our road sections have been designed to match these base sizes, so you a 200mm is the right size to go in front of a building, a 300mm road section goes along side a building, or 2 x 200mm sections if the buildings base is extended with a garden or additional yard area.

We have provided alleyway sections, which are great for placing between two rows of buildings arranged back to back. These are 50mm deep, so we have designed a 50mm road section to increase the length of roads where alleyways are being used.

All road sections have been designed using Sally 4th's jigsaw road alignment method. This means that each piece has a jigsaw like tab and socket that joins with adjoining pieces to stop your terrain drifting apart mid-game. These joints are hidden away underneath the pavement sections.

Just putting an order in now for the corner shop (even though I've not finished the pub yet, still working on the toilets!) and I might order some roads for Much-Piddling!

Martin,

I am very impressed with your attention to detail. Your village is going to be a marvel to behold. If you are going to want full interiors with staircases and room dividers do let me know as the plan was always to do these if their was a demand. I was planning to get enough shells to cover a 6' x 6' gaming area and then go back and do some interiors, but I could bring them forward if you need them!

Best regards,

Chris

PM sent, I am definitely getting the bug for building Much-Piddling now for Pulp Alley games. I can do a bit of VBCW there as well. I also have a future plan for Home Guard versus U-Boat crew for WWII! I intend to use Pulp Alley rules for the VBCW and WWII so we'll see how this turns out.

I meant to ask as well, what's that white bus in your photo? That looks really good.

Some WIP photographs of our Photo realistic Pub Interior Set.



This is still very much a work in progress, but we hope to get it finished by the end of the week to show off at Triples.



We still need to add details like skirting board and door surrounds, mantelpieces for the fireplace and to design the inside of the netty.



We also have a bit more work to do on the coverings set, including upstairs carpets, interior doors, paintings and pub details.

Chris, that is brilliant!  :-* Just what I was looking for. Really looking forward to adding this to my pub. The stairs look great as does that extra room by the back door. Also, I like the idea of the chimney going up through the middle, it gives a nice fire place in the bar area.

Glad you like it Martin, with a chimney in the middle of the roof, fireplace in middle seemed a logical conclusion. I just need to do skirting boards, door surrounds, doors and 1st floor carpets and we are good to go!

What about a canal passing through the village? Lock gates, lock-keeper's cottage, a couple of narrow boats?

It looks stunning. I'm getting my wish list together now, Chris and against my better judgment, this will probably be on it...If it is, I just hope I can do it justice.

I'll be in touch tomorrow (off to the Post office with your box tomorrow, btw).

Great interior Chris!!!  A worthy addition to the range.

Just who makes that splendid mini of a besotted Mad Lord Snapcase sprawled drooling in the corner?

Not that I'd want such a portrait figure, but having a wino huddled in the alley would work too.

Wonderful work all around!!
