I’ve been doin some cleaning of scenery and then fish and some light painting on them, but due to some stress, I’ve been putting of the step I was not looking forward to anyway.
First here’s some of the scenery I ordered from mastercrafted miniatures.
Really nice stiff and perfect for Bushido.

I have made a bit of a mix of the types of grass I used and used this to make a bit of a blend. It looks better this way. Not perfect, but better. I also mad a few patches of this mix for even more variety.

Than the scary part. I though about making the “dam”to keep the resin pour out of foamboard, but decided on testing a few drops first. I put some duct-tape on a piece of foamcore and dropped a few splatters of the mixed resin on both. This taught me: The resin will adhere to the paper and look bad and it will take the structure of anything it’s poured on. Bit obvious, the latter, but not something I had considered.

I ended up using some industrial double sided tape to keep a piece of pvc coated cloth in place. This stuff is used to make trailer coverings and stuff. I got it from work, but I think any piece of plastic will do. The important thing was that I could be wrapped around the corner, but still remain upright.

Unfortunately, when I made the mix and added as tiny bit of camo green to it, my construction wasn’t waterproof as I had assumed. I first messed around with a glue gun, but ended up using more duct-tape. I figured I had some cleaning up to do in the end anyway. I hope I’ll manage to do this in 4 pours. I’ll start adding fish to the next one, after finishing their paintjob this evening.
