That sounds fine to me.

Nice work! It looks like a fun project. At first I was confused about the large blue wall, but then I realized it was supposed to represent the mold.

What is the purpose of the blue blocks under the normal blocks 3 photos up?

You can paint the tile with any type of flat spray paint. Flat black is a good choice if you want to dry brush grays on top of it.

However, the whole purpose of making a mold is to use the mold and make castings from it - without harming the original. In most cases the original is never used in a ...

These look great! I am interested to see how the board is arranged. I am not familliar with the game.

Yes I do. This is the texture I wish I had started with at the beginning of the whole mold making thing. My overall plan is this:

I have a large project in the background of my mind which kind of fuels the projects and directions of this next series of molds. This project is to make a modular board ...

This is where you can put a link to a photo located somewhere else on the internet. In order to use this icon you would need to put a web address between the "img" tags ...

I painted these using the exact same dry brushing method as all of my other projects. Since the bricks are recessed, they naturally appear darker because the dry brushing cannot reach down as well into the recesses. It works really well.
