Aggressive expansion and small update.

I decided that I should make a few extra pieces so that I can rearrange the layout in different ways. This would also mean I can expand to a full 4′ x 6′ layout and have enough room to fit my Victorian Science Fiction Airport onto the board (once I actually finish that building, that is) and also increase the ‘slums area’, which I still have to make.

This would also mean I could add some more Fantasy style buildings to my collection in the future.  It would be nice to add a tavern and wizards tower of some sort down the line.

Still plenty more to do just to get the basic tabletop done, but I'm getting there.Still plenty more to do just to get the basic tabletop done, but I'm getting there.

I also found a little time to do some general tweaks here and there and fix up a few bits that were not quite sitting right for me.   At the moment the board is all ‘unclipped’.  Once I insert the clips it pulls the whole thing together and closes all the gaps.   Once I have got all the individual tiles to the same level, I can give them some weathering to help tie them all together and then start clipping them together so I can start making some progress on all the extra bits to go with it.

I have repainted the cobblestone road, added small grills to all the arches built into the walls, repainted the curb stones a slightly lighter shade, which I think helps separate the paving from the road sections better.  I also inserted batteries into the pillars for the lighting.I have repainted the cobblestone road, added small grills to all the arches built into the walls, repainted the curb stones a slightly lighter shade, which I think helps separate the paving from the road sections better.

A view along one section of the sewer system that runs around the outside of the board, and will eventually expand into the board under the surface.   I created small thin lift off roofs for all the sewer sections so that I can still use them without all the stuff on top and have a similar 'fog of war' effect as I have for my Dungeonalia project.A view along one section of the sewer system that runs around the outside of the board, and will eventually expand into the board under the surface.

I painted the roofs of my Gothic corner pieces to match the copper roofs of my Gaslight buildingsI painted the roofs of my Gothic corner pieces to match the copper roofs of my Gaslight buildings
I also painted the curb stones going over the bridges and made the steps from the lower to upper levels more grey in colour.  I also painted the curb stones going over the bridges and made the steps from the lower to upper levels more grey in colour.
