Subject: 15mm terrain project - What's next?

Hi guys. I recently completed three new pieces (barbed wire, an expansion set for my bocage and farm fields) for the 15mm resin terrain I have been doing. I am looking to start some new pieces but I am looking for your input on what you find is missing in the realm of 15mm. At the moment I am considering rail lines, a river set and ponds. What pieces would you like to see available for your game table?

It is already on the drawing board. : ) Automatically Appended Next Post: What sort of road signs did you have in mind? I'm not sure they would cast very well since they are so thin.

European road signs( big and small) for villages and towns. Especially France,Belgium,Holland and Germany .
There seems to quite a few companies making signs and transfers for larger scales but 15mm is lacking.
Best decals I recently saw were made by model dads,but alas no longer

I'll look into it. The pieces should be easy enough. The mold making and casting is my concern. Rail lines look to be a definite on the to do list.

Check it out...
I started with 3/4" pink Styrofoam
Drew out the rough shape of the two supports cut them out and used a sanding block to smooth them into identical curves then used a ball point pen to draw in the stonework.
then I cut a piece of foam core to a width of 4" and a length of about 12 1/2". Then used hot glue to attach it to the inside of my first support, then the other was glued. I used a shingle for the rough road patch.
