And green stuff is really sticky and hard to work with if you don't moist it a bit first.

And about the death korps... I would choose the color brown for their masks and black for their coats, cuz I like the way they resemble old russian officers. But I think you should go for whatever you think looks best]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/337517/2291840.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/337517/2291840.page GMT Re:Green stuff , Why cant I acheive what I want
Thanks, guys.

Yeah, love the mud. At first it was a little hard to cover them in mud because they look good without the mud, too. And I was worried to overdo it. But I will try to do one or two squads with more mud. Engineers and Grenadiers are really going to get dirty!

Mud receipt:

- Wood glue, a few drops of water, fine sand, and ... drumroll ... saw dust.
- mix it and cover the base with it
- wait fot the mud to dry, then paint it Bestial Brown. At this stage it'll look really ugly.
- Wash with Devlan Mud, maybe some Badab Black in deeper areas.
- The Edge of the base is painted Scorched Brown and washed with Badab Black

I don't think you can. You can get liquid nails from pound shops though. A mix of that and air dry clay can create a good mud effect.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/337517/2296899.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/337517/2296899.page GMT Green stuff , Why cant I acheive what I want GS, altogether. There are numerous ways to do mud that I've seen tutorials for and nearly all of them are cheaper and will probably end up looking better. A quick dakka or google search for tutorials should give you plenty of different methods to test out, but I'd look no further than doubleT's DKoK blog, linked above.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/337517/2297454.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/337517/2297454.page GMT Green stuff , Why cant I acheive what I want
