The only problem I have with making large boards is how to store them! What would you do? I mean, I have enough space to do so, but I can't decide whats the best layout that won't damage or flake hills ... especially flames of war boards! Any advice would be great.
@stefanoGFsiciliano storing large boards is definitely a problem. I have trouble just storing extra 20" x 10" boards. Stacking them flat, with bubble wrap between them is the best strategy I think. And probably not more than 5-6 high as its gets heavy and can press on the flock perhaps sticking it to the bubble wrap and pulling it off. Using cardboard boxes helps as they make a sort of proto-shelf when stacked, and dust free. Dust is the enemy of flock as its hard to remove. :)
Gha, funny to think I commented on the previous video not knowing this was actually supposed to be something so close to my home. For all clarity its spelled Oosterbeek.
Dont strain yourself on the sandraising for the rails, those tend to be very artificial looking over here, even in those days.
Also red brick roads are correct, just confirming. Could probably get you pictures of roads from that period should you want them for reference.
Oh and something Im missing here; the Netherlands have a large number of watering ways, because of our flood plain status. Anyhow, pretty much all fields here have ditches about a meter deep running around them, those in turn lead towards larger water ways. Railways as well would have these ditches along their sides. Once again, getting you reference pictures of these wouldnt be a problem should you want them.
Wow, thank you for the offer and the information. I will see about putting in the ditch along side the railroad but space may be limited. If you have a quick pic (please don't go to any effort though) of the ditches you reference or rail lines, you could send it to my terranscapes email address.

No, a private customer but I think his total collection might be museum worthy. :)
