Take a look at his web page (the link is in his sig). You'll find instructions there and a heap of great pics as well.  :cool:

Perhaps painting too many 6mm figures has made me go blind, but I didn't see any instructions.

I did however find heaps of great pictures.

Thanks!

Klon - great website, but, I don't think it's a good idea to advertise that you are casting your own squat miniatures from GW's miniatures.

That being said, I'd like to see the template / guide to making the cardboard buildings.  Very nice!

Notice these really are instructions on how to _get_ the stuff, not how to _build_ the stuff. :)

due to the feeback (thanks, all) i'll try and get a few templates together & post them here soonish. please note that i would be willing to swap buildings against other models (or money) as well - for those who haven#t got the time to sit around all day glueing cardboard bits.

especially looking for: IG infantry, leviathan, great gargant. (the list goes on)

@tertius:
concerning recasting GW minis:
i am aware that gw are aggressive marketers, but last time i looked there was nothing illegal about buying GW miniatures and doing whatever you like with them afterwards - they're my property since i bought them.
copyright is the issue you're referring to i guess: i mustn't use their intellectual/artistic property to make profit. no problem with that. that's the reason i didn#t file the post under 'merchandise' in my blog but under 'projects'.
am i right?
or did anyone make a different experience?

I drew up a rough template with measurements and a step-by-step guide, PM me if you want it. Easier that way around I guess.

The template is for the regular cubic shape, the smaller ones follow the same pattern, improvise & make sure you let me see the results!
