About the Project

I have been getting into DnD recently so I decided to look into making some tiles. I had a load of foam core kicking around and so thought this would be good. I thought about just scoring lines and painting it but decided this was not quite right. I then found a few MDF 25mm bases I had kicking around and thought they may work...so here is my project, I am sure this is by no means original but hey it's what I have laying around.

Stone in a can

For quick results I went for Plastikote Stone in a can

I think it looks alright :-) with a little dry brush and maybe the odd bit of flock to enhance. But otherwise an ok result that can be used as it is.

Measure

First off I worked out the gap I needed with the tiles which was about 1mm

Cut the core

Next stage is to draw a line, and then cut with a sharp knife to the correct size

Gluing the bases

I use PVA to stick on the bases

I start with gluing down the four corners first. Then fill in the sides then the middle on larger bases this enables me to get the spacing between the tiles correct.
