excellent,. thanks elaine , will have to see these pics at home as i cant see them on my work computer for some reason

I think its important to have a nice underlayer. I shall also put a picture of the cloth i have found , its similar to the one used in pool tables, its not thick and can easily be stretched therefore mimimum risks of klickies falling down and domino effects ( i hate them !!) . Not as nice I am sure as a paint job but hpefully it will do the job. Willget some blue for sea also and sand colour if available so my sea and egypt sets are more realistic .. ole !!!!!!!!!!!  :yippee:

. . .  For most of the displays we used vinyl table covering which we painted with emulsion paint and in some cases we mixed this with acrylic paints to get the colours we wanted. 
For the medieval display we used plain black vinyl. 
We marked out the inside of the walls and painted that grey and for the outside Junior had the idea of using the brush to stipple it with shades of green, I thought the end result gave a very good effect.

The painted vinyl looks terrific, Elaine!  Is "emulsion" paint the same as what we call "latex" paint over here in the colonies?  That is to say, is it the type of paint you would use on the walls of a room? 

I hope your exhibition was a great success and look forward to seeing more photos when you have the time.   :)

Yes Indianna emulsion paint is what we would use for painting walls of a room. 
I am working on the photos still - we took so many that they need a lot of sorting out to find the best ones.  I was busy with a craft exhibition last week so have only dismantled the displays today.  I am now in the unenviable position of finding somewhere to store everything again  8}  However I will post the photos soon - hopefully in the next couple of days!!  :D

Elaine :)
