15mm Trees complete

Been awhile since I posted but it has been a busy time:

1) Met up with Tanuki from TMP for a wet afternoon gaming (and boy did it rain). He has a super set of Skaven / Tau conversions (got to get him to post a pic or two) that I look forward to fighting and also plays a mean game of Wings Of War.

2) I got the 'tree' set finished

  • Assembled the bits with a hot glue gun
  • Added wood filler to the base so it would not crack if it flexed
  • Painted the edges black
  • Flocked with static grass on heavy PVA
  • Sprayed with scenic cement

Really pleased with my first bits of scenery and they are of an OK size for 25/28mm figures - now just to add the mag basing and off they go into the 'ready for action' pile.

Money wise not such a great time. Before I get paid I've spent the money on the rest of the GZG figures I wanted and joined the beta test for Guncrawl 2!

I'll update the spend and post more on GC2 over the next couple of days as I now have to spend some time printing / reading and testing

You sprayed the scenic cement on after flocking onto PVA? For what purpose?

Over the years I have found that static grass rubs off - this way I have no molting fears and it helps to bond the 'trees' to the other bits of the base.
