Well, my impressions are, Very nice!

I like the road section and the sidewalk. They have a used look to them as they would in real life. The ruins are fantastic as well. Adding all of those together could make a very ince setting for just about any time frame.

Reality in Scale's items that are identified as:
Old Cobblestone Road, small stones
and
Old Cobblestone Road, large stones
incorporate original item sewer grates that are Monroe Perdu Studios unique product.
The owner of Reality in Scale has plagerized this part and has not asked Monroe Perdu Studios permission to include this in their castings.

I've asked Reality in Scale to remove the items from his website until he can modify them to eliminate our appropriated products. He has cropped photos but is continuing to offer these items for sale.

I want people to be aware of this business practice when they decide to purchase from Reality in Scale.

Dear reader,

I would like to inform you that we are adjusting the master models for the cobblestone roadsections which will contain our own scratchbuild grates.

It was my mistake to use Mr Bishops carboard grates and I did admit this mistake to him in private emails. I've done everything within my power to resolve this issue including the removal of the photo's on several modelling sites. The roads are also temporarily removed from the Reality in Scale website.

I'm sorry this issue had to end up on the world wide web. Apologies from my side for the confusion this have might caused

Best regards
Olav Smeets
