Done with 3 of'm, the rough landscaping part, made a start on nr.4 but I'm still thinking about the gap in the corner. And thinking and re-thinking [:-spin] Did give all the track 2 coats of rusty red / black color out of a rattlecan, pick up some flat camo browns at a shop tomorrow..

Thanks guys !! Made a dark territory out of 2 modules, partly painted with a dark black/brown base coat, also tried to fill the gaps between the modules, want them as tight as possible..
Also made a start on the coastal rocks, aluminium foil method as usual. Bit worked on after removing the foil..weapons of choice..
Result till now, not painted..

Finished rocking up the coast on 2 of the 4 modules..
Reminded me of a discussion I had a while ago about the use of aluminiumfoil for rockmoulds. He told me at that time that it's always visible that you use the foil. I told him I wasn't done with exploring the possibilities using the foil combined with a few other techniques..this is where I'm at now just using foil, steelbrush, dentalpick and sometimes a chissle...
Must say that I'm pretty pleased with the result untill now, but thers more to explore.. |
Grtz Martin..

| I agree. Your aluminium molded rocks are the best I've seen. I had already told you that for the rocks in the other room and it's even more evident here. |
