Hex Tiles - II

Well I have almost finished a complete set of tiles...or at least enough to cover the table once. Which means I am about 2/3 of the way complete. Some things I have noted throughout this project:
  1. You will use far my white glue, green paint and flock than you imagine. Get more.
  2. You need to stick to the plan you make otherwise you will need more sheets of polystyrene to cover your "creativity"
  3. Double siding the hexes gives you greater flexibility...if all tiles are double sided, then you don't have to worry about a few standing "proud" on the table.

NOTE: Because of (2) I need to get more polystyrene to ensure I have enough "basic" hexes to cover the table without the need for having a river. And because of (1) I can't complete the hexes I have cut out, or even look at (3) to solve my problem. Which means, the whole project will take another week or so to complete...but only after I work out what "special" pieces I need to give me total flexibility.
