I did my terrai...Thanks for the compliment, Chris!<br /><br />I did my terrain by placing a green khaki dropcloth, which I had previously spray-painted with dark green, brown and yellow blotches, over styrofoam hills. Then I used artist's pastels to outline the hills, make the roadsm give color here and there and etc.<br /><br />Trees are clumps of dark green woodland scenics rough foileage glued to coins and washers. Individual trees are the same foleage superglued around the heads of round stick pins and stuck into the stryofoam (they also have the effect of holding the terrain in place. Buildings are made with bits of this and that. The river is an old x-ray, cut into strips. Fields are either bits of felt, colored with pastels to give depth, or bits of painted cheese-cloth with flocking glued to it.<br /><br />This was my first go at this sort of terrain and I was pleased with the results. But the master of the technique is MHLuther. His drop-dead gorgeous AARs can be found here:<br /><br />http://www.flickr.com/photos/6mmgaming/sets/<br /><br />Just click on any of the microarmor reports.<br /><br />This man is my inspiration and I can only hope to get as good as him one day.Thaddeus Gregory Blanchettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09359423010378429288noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4784390992211969614.post-57711626148567572422009-11-13T06:57:02.478-08:002009-11-13T06:57:02.478-08:00Cool game!
