Re: Bristol Armoured Division
^^^ Yes is the answer, Clark boards are just plug and play. IR needs additional plugs that can be bought online or from Clark.
Ok, I got fed up with the blue sheet of death that we have been using as a river, so sawed all of the sheets of MDF that Dom gave me in half, coated them with tile cement, painted them blue, and the highlighted with white. I'll see if I can find something to use as river banks.
A super cheap source of paint is the Asda kids section, they sell large bottles of acrylic paint for £1.25 in the main colours.

Re: Bristol Armoured Division
I think the river has just become a canal.
Not that here's anything wrong with that. The continent of Europe seems to littered with the things. Looks good.

Re: Bristol Armoured Division
My thoughts are to create a raised curved river bank using earth and pva so that it looks more irregular.

Re: Bristol Armoured Division
Great effort.
I will see what I can do towards the banks.

Re: Bristol Armoured Division
Might be pushing the boat out, excuse the pun, but what would be ideal would be 16 x 50cm pieces of batten with a slot along the lower edge of each one. If the slot is 6mm high and 10mm deep then I can slot the sections in and glue them. This would prevent warping, and I can turn the batten into canal walls.
