Scrubbery

Hi, today I'm presenting you my 100st post! Scrubbery patches. These patches were really easy to make and ideal for breaking up large areas. They are generic and can be used for all imaginary settings.

I hope you like them,



A short tutorial

Used tools

- Hotgluegun (for glueing bits and pieces)
- Stanleyknife (to cut the edges of the bases)
- Metalpliers (to cut the actual bases)
- Scissors (to cut the broombristles)
- Saw (to saw the bark)
- Brushes

Used materials

- Paint
- Broombristles
- Green liches
- Static grass and other types of foliage
- PVA
- Sand
- Bark

Construction steps

1) Cut and sand the bases.
2) Add textured by adding sand and PVA.
3) Add bark (additional).
4) Paint and drybrush in the wanted colors.
5) Add the broombristles in clumps with hotglue.
6) Add foliage and flock.
7) shake of the excess of flock.
8) Ready to use!

The rocky piece, I love the use of bark as rock. Light and goodlooking.

nice job on the terrian, its my first time to your blog but won't be my last. I just don't have time for terrian any more, just to much painting. But looking at what you've done makes me want to get creative with the cutting tools again
