<![CDATA[Latest posts for the thread "Scale agnostig Forest Terrain"]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/8.page JForum - http://www.jforum.net Scale agnostig Forest Terrain I also kept in mind that I would like to use for other games as well, e.g. 40k.
I made the basic structure from styrofoam, coated it with gipsum and used a brush to get some surface details. Then I basecoated it black, drybrushed grey. Mixed brown paint with sand to get a texture for the ground, than flocked and glued on some nice trees. Used green foam as small bushes on some pieces to hide any areas missing some paint. Some pieces will need a little more work to patch up some spots.

I keep on meaning to grab some winter trees to add to my table, but never get around to it.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/798312/11124422.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/798312/11124422.page GMT Scale agnostig Forest Terrain http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/798312/11124501.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/798312/11124501.page GMT Scale agnostig Forest Terrain I might start a modeling blog to keep different projects together.

Mixing it with acrylic color and PVA turned it into an easy to spread paste.

After letting it dry over night I made a fun discovery!
Spoilered because it is a massive image (I will figure out how to post smaller images).

The paste started to crack! I looks like really dried up land, I am heavily contemplating no flocking any of it and start a new range of wasteland terrain.
I will post pictures of the entire piece after drybrushing and cleanup.

One note on degradable materials: The coffee was used almost an hour after brewing coffee, so I would consider it sufficiently desinfected. I have used coffee
to decorate bases before, where I had collected larger amounts and dried it in the oven at ~70°C. I never had an issue with mould or similar.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/798312/11126554.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/798312/11126554.page GMT
