Antenociti stocking BPC Sci-FI Decking
Antenociti's Workshop is stocking
brass-etched BPC Sci-FI Decking.

From their website:
We’ve added a new product which Jed is all happy-smiley about… BPC sci-fi decking.
This may be recognisable to quite a few of you as the decking (ceiling, walls) in sci-fi films such as Star Wars and Aliens… the films were made at British film studios where, when asked what to use as flooring, they went into the back-yard of the film studio. There they found a huge pile of disused packing crates, which were then chopped-up and made into flooring, ceiling and so forth…hence “British Packing Crate decking”.
This design is one most recognisable from ALiens, the other (cross-hatch_ design will follow later in the year.
The pack consists of two (2) 55m x 55mm frets of etched-brass, with half-etched detail producing a replica pattern and depth to provide texture and depth. This makes them ideal for custom bases for sci-fi miniatures.
