Good dnd miniatures
Please be aware these are NOT A4 sheets, as I made that error. These measure 131mm x 101mm.I had purchased this to create d'n'd miniatures for a d'n'd campaign I am running. After looking around this seemed to be the best option for size, ease of creation and adaptability.I would highly suggest this as an option for anyone else in the same position.Though I made an error buying these thinking they were A4, it turned out far better than expected as they were actually the perfect size. Essentially cut them in half and they become the perfect d'n'd miniatures size. My suggestion is to split them in half precisely. Each measuring 65mm x 101mm.When heating them up in the oven, definitely use foil! I tried it once without and nearly ended up with bits of colourful plastic permenatly stuck to the baking tray, not so much fun.Permenant marker works a charm on them and can come out with some very vivid colours. Light colours darken and dark colours darken even more. So a dark blue is likely to come out nearly black.As I make more miniatures, I'll definitely be coming back here to purchase more sheets.

Cut it on the Cricut for pin badges!
Decided to use these to make pin badges that were lighter than the clay ones I was making. Used my Cricut to cut them out and the end result is awesome!My original size was 8cm width which shrank down to about 3.5, so it was just under half. I found that placing my design so that it went from the top to bottom of the sheet meant it had less warping as I had previously tried it 'landscape' to get two out of every sheet but they were squished looking.On the Cricut I made my own custom material setting which was 350 pressure (so all the way up) and 6 passes. Sometimes the cut was a gnats whisker too shallow so had to run a scissor blade along it to get it to pop out but it cut clean more often than not.I didn't put them in the oven either, I used a Pyrex bowl and a heat gun. The bowl meant that it didn't blow away and could handle the heat. Once shrunk and finished curling I tipped it onto the table and put a glass tile over it to flatten and cool.

It works fine
My fault l suppose, l didn’t notice how small these sheets are, however very disappointing for the price

i got these for work (i work at a day service) i tried them out before work to test them and theyre so great. the people at work were fascinated and loved having something to take home (we made magnets). i also did a few with my 7year old niece and her 4year old friend they coloured in images i traced then i sharpied the outline to make them stand out. they turned out great! we used pens pencils and stamps but the stamps didnt work great. i would recomend getting modge podge to seal in designs. i will be buying these again once weve used them up. i love how its such an inclusive activity for all ages and abilities.

Pros and cons
Pros - it shrinks, and looks good when it actually works!Cons - both sides are completely smooth so pencils are impossible to use on it, acrylic paint pens are the way to go. When shrinking with a heat gun, this stuff WILL fold in on itself and stay stuck, you can try to pry it open whilst it's still hot but you're left with warped plastic, I use the heat gun method with their opaque white variant with little issue so perhaps the transparent variant works best with the oven? Will need to experiment more
