Can anyone recommend a good sandy desert mat? Preferably something that works for 6mm as well as 28mm and in the yellow/orange spectrum rather then brown.

I have the fall out and snowstorm 6'x4' version and its awesome.

Deep Cut Studio has several, and I can attest to the colors being pretty close to the online images.

I love the Cigar box one, nice suggestion.

I have one of the neoprene Deep Cut mats linked above and have to say it has done sterling services for me. This is an old picture of a 10mm Warmaster game.


Definitely an orange hue. The brighter yellow scenery bases you can see are W&N Yellow Ochre and have since been hit with a chestnut wash which now matches the orange nicely.
