I got an e-mail from Timecast advertising a "new flexible terrain system". It's "flexible latex and can be "easily painted" in acrylics.
Anyone else got anything like this? How well does it keep paint?
I have seen some of their prototypes. Pretty well basically.
They provide instructions on their website for painting.

I have floppy roads from Old Glory, bought about 20-odd years ago. I used washes on them and they are still holding their colour to this day.
I would look at Fat Franks floppy roads on Ebay. Already done and about a third of the price. One of my friends have some and they look really good.
Just realised how that reads - My friends floppy one looks really good :-\

I use Fat Frank too and I've always been more than happy with quality and service. He will also adjust what he does as you wish.

Yes, I have some too. He will make them to order in 10, 15 or 28mm sizes.

Highly recommended and , as Orcs says, a fraction of the price.
Googled Fat Frank but all I got was an overweight Bolton Wanderers footballer :(
Here he is:

Thanks - now bookmarked.
Does Fat Farnk do joining bridges and waterways/
Don't know, but drop him and email, I've always found him very helpful.

He certainly does joining waterways in 10mm and 15mm. Can't see any bridges on his site.
