Eastern Front Snow Mat 12/02/25 Member Project

Dave Schaffner has a bit of snowy day WIP to share with us for an upcoming WWII Eastern Front Game.

We’ll let Dave give us a description of his efforts here…..

This custom mat is heading our way from the printers pronto – it’s scaled for some Epic, 3mm-size Pico-Armor winter gaming this season.

Inspired by the current Little Wars TV – Operation Winter Thunderstorm initiative, the mat will be waiting for some Stalingrad-relief actions….

A bit of background might be in order as we have to offer some Thanks to Patrick Connaughton who passed along a tip he picked up at a convention. While gaming at the Con, Patrick got into a conversation regarding a nicely done custom game mat that the GM was using and learned that it was simply a fleece blanket offered by a company that does a variety of photography prints. As we gamers are always looking for a good value and a means to increase our available tools for our table tops Dave sent off an order to the photo printer and let us know that he was pretty happy with the results.

I will add in that I have used this company in the past to produce canvas prints for my walls of a variety of vacation photos and never been dissatisfied with their work and found them reasonably priced. So if you are thinking about a game mat here is a link that might be of help to you.
