Next basing question then: How would you make a tile effect?  I’ve one model only I want to do this for so buying a roller is a waste of money.  I could sit down and cut squares out of a sheet of plastic, but I know I’d never get them uniform and I expect the edges to not be smooth and flat enough.  I could score through some green stuff, but I expect similar issues.  I was wondering if there was any household items or trash that might either be useable as tiles, or for imprinting on green stuff?  The model is a Morticia Adams type lady at a larger scale (54-72 ish).  Square tiles will do, but I’m open to other patterns.

I just had a memory!  I think I saw Januinevision score a grid part way through some plasticard to make a tile effect.  I could then take a round file and run it through the scores to smooth off the corners.  I’ve some old plastic business card things I could possibly use.  Still no sure I trust myself to cut perfectly round, or score parallel though, so I’m definitely interested to hear alternatives.
