If I might make another suggestion, I protected the sides of my boards using reinforced adhesive tape. It has lasted for four years so far and it's still going strong.

They are coming along nicely.

Unfortunately we seldom have space to roll dice anywhere else,  but when possible I'm not going to allow them on my boards just to cut down on wear and tear.

And thank you for the advice subedai, I was just thinking about that today.

Desert board is finished!





I still have to give it a coat of matte varnish to help keep the sand on, but do you guys have any suggestions before I do that?

Looks great BH

If I was mean I would say a few burnt out Centurions but I'm not, so I wont
If I were creating Pendraken I wouldn't mess about with Romans and  Mongols  I would have started with Centurions , eight o'clock, Day One!

BeardedHammer

Do you mean the 40k space marine centurions?

No, there's some minor post WW2 stuff that's called Centurion, nothing important ;) Although equally I gues it could be post Carrhae and they could be original burnt out Centurions :D

Looks really good!

Buy plenty of Matron's sculpts now!

If he keeps using the chainsaw, the value of his work will soon go up.

Thanks guys, and I'm sad now...



I had to take that pic, lol. That's the Space Marine Centurion :)

I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I needed to be.

BeardedHammer

So what board should I do next? Mountain pass or WW2 ruined village?

Nice jungle scene ready for the Aztecs; you'll have a couple of years to work on it  :D

I don't think I can afford that many trees  :-X  ;D

Subedai

Open steepe for the Mongols you just know you want to get. If not then I reckon a WW II ruined village would be quite interesting.

OK, how about a compromise?  ??? A steppe board with removable mountain pass corner piece And I'll make it able to match up one side with the river board for larger games.

Good idea?
