The foreseeable future is me updating my product description webpages. With almost 125 products for sale, this could take a while. I don't expect to produce any new models for the next couple of weeks, but I think the update is much needed.

If it streamlines the business and makes things more viable then I'm all for it! You're a pioneer in this market already  |

It's gotta be done sometime, and it's best to do it before it is obviously out of date. You have a lot of wiggle room there, but it is always best to stay ahead of the curve.
Good luck with that

Any way to outsource any of that? Like need files converted or images cropped or anything? I bet some of us here have some free time, or at least available processing power.

It's gotta be done sometime, and it's best to do it before it is obviously out of date. This is a good time to do it. My stuff will be getting into a couple more shops pretty soon, and I'll be revamping my website next month (probably). Getting these whipped into shape now will make all of those things easier. Plus, it'll look nice. Making things that look nice is about 90% of my job.  Any way to outsource any of that? Like need files converted or images cropped or anything? I bet some of us here have some free time, or at least available processing power. Nah, I need to be hands-on about this stuff. |

Speaking of which...... how easy is it to change a GSD file to match a reduced image file? I print out your buildings at 55% for our games and I've just ordered my silhouette. How easy is altering the files going to be |

Never had a trouble with it, can set a scale factor in the application for my craft robo. I have made my armies for 15mm games by taking OneMonk 30mm figures and reducing them 50% on print, then sending the gsd files at 50%.
No work at all for me.

Awesome Unleash the hordes! We are going to play a mighty empires campaign over a whole year, we want 'set piece' towns and cities to fight over. I've got loads of Dave's stuff at 30mm already and was a bit scared of doing it all over at 15mm. (especially the Church). |

The real secret that is involved in scaled down cardstock builds - the thickness. As the build is scaled down so is the tolerances for folds and layers. One thing that gets forgotten is the cardstock thickness. For most casual folds standard stock is fine but when building something that has a lot of corners and layers the actual finished result can be not as square as desired.
Grab yourself some lighter stock for the tricker sections of the scaled down builds.
