Go back a few years to my first battle of Leuthen post to see it. I took some roofing felt, (don't know what you'd call it in the US. The stuff that goes over the wooden lathes and under the shingles) and painted it white using a big old sponge to dab it on. The only thing to be wary off is wearing chunky woollen pullovers as they'll catch on the felt.Colin Ashtonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11650235978313356607noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8467940965162601045.post-86930128282779064132018-12-16T16:35:05.405+00:002018-12-16T16:35:05.405+00:00Wonderful report and a delight to see your beautif...Wonderful report and a delight to see your beautiful crimean armies.<br /><br />Could you say how you did the game mat?
