Just wanted to remind all of an option 'halfway' between paper/cardboard
and resin: vacuform.
The plastic can be a bit fragile, and, depending on the method of
molding,
the detail a bit blurred, but it's nearly at light as stiff cardboard,
and
as three dimensional as resin. And the price tends to be very good.
I mentioned Sci-Fi Supply on list a while ago, but I don't have the web
site handy. Are there other companies doing similar? Has anyone done
their
own?
I've both an old Mattel Vacu-form and the more recent, reversed mold
version. Anyone try using these for their own walls? Natch, in much
smaller
chunks than you can do with Wild Walls.
