Its something I did consider, but opted for the plain look as people may want different road layouts rather than a standard dashed road marking layout. But nevertheless a very good idea that i may incorporate in future pieces.

Please, don't add markings. At least not following contemporary dotted designs. Roads looking like those around us now is a serious blow to the suspension of disbelief to me. If you want crispness, I recommend painting stuff in using stencils or perhaps printing your own markings.

Yup no markings.. It just don't fit to 40k setting to have exactly the same road markings as we do now :p.

Doesn't mean you need to follow contemporary earth (Terran?! ;-) ) markings but to me something to denote lanes / junctions etc is worthwhile to indicate scale and usage -easier to remove than create... Could look at a foreign country or different time period (soviet Russia??) or make something up... As the Imperialium still exclusively uses architecture copied from Northern Europe circa 700-1400 AD, road markings seem the least of the problem ! :-)

Still sounds like I'm in the minority here so I'll have to make up some stencils I guess ! :-D

everyone has a different scheme (or lack thereof). Modeling them on would be a, daresay epic failure? ;)

this is of interest to me. I was planning on making a new series of roads from everygreen sheets next month but having the luxury of built items would be nice PROVIDED there's enough variation which IMHO is lacking at the moment.

So here are all 5 tiles cast and with ink splashed over them to pick out detail. I know they are naff photos, I'll have some better ones done in a wee while.

Mate,

Sorry if I have missed this, what are the dimensions of the tiles? What are you looking at for cost, set make up and the like.

Cheers
Aaron
