Ok so this is all very easy and basic...

you need:

• a base material I'm using foam board, but any good Base MAterial can be used, wood.. cardboard board..
• Trees Duh! I use the old style GW Trees (they block LOS better)
• Acrylic Paint
• PVA Glue
• Flock / Static Grass
• Board / NewsPaper / Box Lid (to catch the Static grass)

cut round shapes in your base material, i think ilregular shapes works best.

I mixed a load of pva glue on a plate with Green yellow and black Acylic Paint, I use paint from a stationary shop.

paint your desired pattern onto the board, or jut cover it completely, don't forget to paint the edges! I'm going for a two tone effect using differnt types of grass.

I use flock catching boards, these are two A3 boards taped together, I also find that a game box lid works well too! This helps reclaim the 95% or so excess flock that doesn't stick to the forest base... cover the forest base in flock/static grass and leave for a minute...

turn the base over and tap it a few times to reclaim the unused flock

Tip back into tub the folding flock catching boards now come into their own!

and Repeat for each of your boards (...I made five) at this stage you need to let the glue flock and paint dry.

+++I left it for about 90mins before continuing with the second layer. (if you jump to this stage to quickly and the first stage paint isn't dry, flock will find the wet paint from the first stage and give a patchy effect)

I mixed yellow and white into the PVA Paint Mix and repeated the above steps... just keeping the paint into the unflocked areas.

this is the Forest base during a game

Ok so this follows the same idea as the basic forest. the addtional parts that i used were left over balcony bits from my GW Imperial City box set.

you need:

• a base material I'm using foam board, but any good Base MAterial can be used, wood.. cardboard board..
• Trees Duh! I use the old style GW Trees (they block LOS better)
• Acrylic Paint
• PVA Glue
• Flock / Static Grass
• Board / NewsPaper /box Lid (to catch the Static grass)

I cut two rectangles from Foam board.

I stuck the Imperial City parts to the board with No More Nails Glue, I think this is a uk product, It's a thick pasty glue, almost filler like and it dries fast... the adverts say you can put up shelves with this stuff So it's ideal for holding gaming materials to foam board!!!

I raided my bits box for some rubble, bits of chopped up sprue, GW rubble(the little brown stones), and stones from my fish tank. this was all pushed up into the no more nails.

I mixed PVA glue with black and white paint, the glue is to help the loose rubble stay stuck down... (about a third of the loose rubble fell off while painting it grey...)

I added white paint to the grey PVA Mix, and stippled this onto the base edges.

You need to leave this to dry or flock from the next stages will stick to the wet grey paint too.

Paint a PVA GReen mix onto the areas you want your Flock to stick

Cover in Flock, and leave for a minute.

Tip the flock off (into a Box lid, Newspaper, or) like here into two A3 boards taped together to catch the flock.

unused Flock back into tub to be reused

Wait 90mins... and paint stage two

cover in second Flock/ Static Grass

this is my Urban gardens in my Imperial City!
