We are pleased to announce a new range of MDF bases, glues, and modelling sands. These are all now available on the site, and we will be adding other items in the future. If there's anything you'd like to see, get in touch.
I'd also like to thank Nik for his help with this little project, it's hugely appreciated!

Hi looks very good, is the superglue the gel type?

No, it's just a regular superglue. Set time is between 10-30 seconds.
We'll be looking to add other things to these ranges as we go along, so the gel version could be an option.
i dont no about others but i find the gel one is better for doing tanks etc, it seems to hold better and does not run so no sticking fingers together :)

I'll have a look then, and see what I can get hold of. Anything to avoid 'Stuck Finger Syndrome'. ;D
How about some shield transfers.
Leon - how thick are the bases ?
According to Pendraken's online catalog these are 2mm MDF (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Medium-density_fibreboard).
Believe it or not, I had to go to Wikipedia myself in order to find out what MDF could be...

I'm guessing you don't have Changing Rooms, Carol Smillie or Laurence Llewelyn Bowen in France!? :D
sounds like 3 good reasons to move to France
I cant' believe I used bandwidth to find out what you were talking about.
Well I confirm that "Changing Rooms" in particular is widely unknown there, but we have "D&Co", with Valérie Damidot and Franck Lecorbeiller - but the show's format is a bit different : in this french version, couples don't swap houses, it's rather the show's team that invade the home of poor hapless people (with the consent of these innocent souls, tough) and turn it into... Well... Something I won't have at home.
Not my cup of tea, I much prefer Ramsay's Kitchen Nightmares.

Possibly, I'm currently looking at getting some tank decals in.

Cheers for those suggestions, I'll make a note of those. We're also looking to add some flocks, static grasses, and trees to the mix as well.
Id love for you to be my one stop shop.
I like it when everythings in one place.
You going to start stocking paints and how about fridges, mines on the blink.

My missus used to sell commercial fridges! But I can't see Pendraken dong them...
I've considered paints, but there's such a wide variety, it would be a big initial outlay to get sufficient stock in. As these bits are my own little sideline, I'll have to wait until the other stuff becomes more popular and I've got the funds.
Just for info, we're going to be adding Textures and Static Grass to our offering, the first couple of which can now be seen here: http://www.pendrakenforum.co.uk/index.php?topic=1066.0 (http://www.pendrakenforum.co.uk/index.php?topic=1066.0)
These first two are just a small taster, and we'll be expanding this range for next month into a much wider variety. There's also another range on it's way to me at the moment, so more info as soon as I have it!
We've just added these to the website! This first batch are all deciduous, varying in height with 35mm, 48mm and 50mm. The styles are slightly different as well. Packaged in bags of 10 at a bargain £2.50, you could have a forest for a tenner! The trees themselves have stiff wire trunks, so you can literally push them into your terrain, or easily mount them on a small piece of putty.
These can be found in the 'Scenery and Basing' section of the website: http://www.pendraken.co.uk/Scenery-and-Basing-c25/Trees-sc210/ (http://www.pendraken.co.uk/Scenery-and-Basing-c25/Trees-sc210/)
We'll be adding some more to this range very soon, with bigger, wider, and different styles!

I'm quite chuffed with the trees. They can be shaped very easily with a pair of tweezers to suit your own tastes, you can change the colours and density with some PVA and a bit of flock, and for that price you can cover the table with them!
Not to blow my own horn or anything... <:-P
I think 'trumpet' is the word you need there Leon...otherwise you might be interpreted a bit differently :o
I will no doubt be buying some in the near future, however when I get kicked out for spending too much money I might be sleeping on your sofa as it is all your fault :D
