| Great looking terrain there.
A lot of painstaking work on the cobbles, I bet they were a pain, but looking good. | |

| Great work. I love your board. What did you use underneath the foam to help it to keep it's shape? What size is the board? Looking forward to seeing more pictures. | |

| Thanks for the warm welcome!
The cobblestone board is 4' x 4' standard. It took two guys two eight hour sessions to make the cobblestone and to paint it, and then one small session to put the styreneboard on a MDF board. Along with the MDF board there is wooden ledges around (not in the photos), which makes it sturdy enough to handle.
I was sceptical at first about making the cobble stone but my friend convinced me. It didnt take as long as I thought and the result is good I think. | |

| THIS is the real deal!! I've been looking for the best possible solutions out there to create a realistic and attractive board for my urban settings. This is the closest I found to what I want. Amazing work, terrific Mordheimish feel! Love the stonework and all the houses and other terrain you and your pals created!

| I agree wholeheartedly with Joao. The way this has been done is nothing short of fantastic. Looking forwards to harnessing the approach with similar techniques in a two-man drawing & scoring styrene session. Ha ha. | |

| Everybody has pretty much said it but I feel the need to compliment you and your friend for the excellent stonework on your "cobblestone" board !
I can only imagine that the process that went into the project may have been both tedious and meticulous but I have always believed that anything worth doing is worth the effort.
Great Job!
