Subject: Livin' on the MEdge - or: 101 things to do with the MEdge terrain sprue...
For a less foamcorial option, I found some storage trays at the local hardware store...
Which turn into this :
Painting about half done...
More shortly...
Could you tell use the dimensions of the container?
I have some but they aren't the right size. I would like to duplicate the model but I have to order the containers online since I can't find any at local stores .

The specific size is going to vary depending on the actual containers you can find, as they're not all standard. But for buildings around the size of mine, you're looking for trays around about 9" long and 5-6" wide and tall.

I drew around a dinner plate, and then just cut along the line with an exacto knife.
If you press reasonably hard with the pencil, it actually makes a groove in the paper lining of the foamcore, which gives you a guide for the knife. As long as you go carefully, it's not too difficult to stick to the line.
The bigger trick is learning to cut straight up and down, which is partly down to practice holding the knife, and partly down to making multiple passes rather than trying to cut all the way through in one go, to avoid the blade bending and warping the cut.

FudgeDumper - It could be that you are just so uncomfortable with the idea of your chapters primarch having his way with a docile tyranid spore cyst, that you must deny they have any feelings at all.

No, although that would have been considerably easier
They were cut out of 2mm plasticard. There was originally only going to be a missing A, but I got sick of cutting them out and decided to drop the second G as well...
