I have build all of my buildings for Gangs of Rome and I have to say i was very please with them, but after 5 years and with fresh eyes, there are things that I was not totally happy with.

The first of these was the roofing. I have always wanted a better, nicer, a more realistic roof for the buildings rather than the plain MDF roof and I was never really happy with corrugated cardboard as it gets very easily damaged, so I put it on hold.

I few months ago I discovered on the Gangs of Rome Face Book Page a wonderful chap, Frank Sultana, who showed his method on this blog Adventures in Lead.

So armed with the information that frank had stated I went on the “ribbed” plastic kitchen drawer or fridge liner. You get some weird results when you do a google search but actually found is on Amazon, Drawer Liners, YBQZ 30cm×200cm Double Anti-Slip Shelf Liner, Non-Adhesive BPA Free Waterproof Kitchen Cupboard Cabinet Liner Refridge Fridge Mats Sink Protector Strong Durable for Home Office (Clear) : Amazon.co.uk: Home & Kitchen.

I am sure there are different sizes of the ribs out there but I am lazy.

Once I had done the roof then I thought that the rest of the building will need a revamp too, weathering, little extras, that lived in look and using Sarissa Stencils, to add a pathing effect to the plain street in front of the building, using a PVA/filler mix.

Well you will see the results as I am building a new table for Gangs of Rome 2, More information on this coming soon.

But please enjoy my journey into revamping Rome, By Jupiter!
