Glad to see they fit well with the Pegasus buildings.

I love those card ruins, I use them a lot but their durability isn't amazing! These really capture the feel in a tougher format.<br /><br />I have to strongly recommend the Pegasus stuff, I wish I'd painted this stuff up when I furst bought it. I have just ordered a couple more sets cheaply on eBay!<br /><br />I'll try and get a few more snaps up tomorrow with some models on!LegioCustodeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13833383911728446032noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5857782535346921526.post-7727932609608599072015-03-24T13:09:44.569-07:002015-03-24T13:09:44.569-07:00Cheers mate, many thanks!

The green is on a whole different level!<br /><br />You're right, everything needs a base on it! And those modular movement trays are great (albeit expensive)!LegioCustodeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13833383911728446032noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5857782535346921526.post-54127625841097837962015-03-24T13:09:43.636-07:002015-03-24T13:09:43.636-07:00Looking good!

The Pegasus and classic GW stuff really works well together and looks spot on for more sturdy versions of the cardboard ruins produced for 2nd edition.<br /><br />I may have to investigate some of the Pegasus stuff for my own projects!<br /><br />Could you take a couple of pics with figures in situ so we can get an idea of scale (it would also be brilliant to see something akin to the shots from old White Dwarf magazines!)<br /><br />All the best!SpacecowSmithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05526363535587059611noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5857782535346921526.post-80927766735563897792015-03-24T13:04:45.046-07:002015-03-24T13:04:45.046-07:00Looking good mate, I don't know why but green ...Looking good mate, I don't know why but green static flock looks great on grey buildings/ruins :).
