Here's a picture of my cobblestone street section. I built it using sheet cork, sprayed flat black, then drybrushed with various colours of craft paint. I think that next time I will bevel the edges of the cobbles a little.

I'm working on it right now. Should be a week or so before I'm done. It take time to make several hundred cobbles by hand.

Very nice cobblestones. i look forward to reading that article.
The link to the Kosovo pics is fixed now. I'm surprised to see how keen you all are to see cobblestone pics. Does this mean you have NO cobblestones in the US ?
