Any chance Leon when you get your resin room up and running to increase the size of the Pendraken stone walls by 2mm?  Possibly just making the bases a little thicker or adding another row of stone?

When my troops are mounted on 2mm MDF the walls are upto their knees rather than a good waste height...the Battlescale ones are a good height but trying to catch them in stock is difficult :)

How about mounting the walls on 2mm MDF bases a bit wider than the walls, then sanding and flocking the MDF base. This will achieve your desired result.

You can do the curved ones using 2mm  thick cork cut into strips.  Glue it with  PVA and clamp until dry. This is how railway modellers  curve the cork around corners for track underlay

Increasing the size as you have suggested will incur lots of extra costs of new masters and new molds.

Not to mention irritating those of us  who base things like walls already.

The thought was that I wouldnt need to base it and so I can use it immediately as scatter terrain like the fences.  I can base them easily enough, just would have saved some effort.

I have used lolly sticks before so will have another go :)
