Trees!
Now I had a colour scheme for the rock face, I needed to work out how I wanted to give a foresty feel to the pieces.
I planned on using a few different colours of clump foilage (mine were from Woodland Scenics – mainly as I already had a couple of packs kicking around) but knew I needed to add some height without wasting material.
For this I used 5mm thick Styrofoam. I need to keep the surface area small to avoid warping as the bases were going to be 1mm thick chipboard sheets (basically extra thick cardboard).
Once the basic shape was cut, and the edges sanded, the were given a coat of cheap brown paint (from B&M).
Once dry, the edges were given a dry brush of Baneblade Brown from GW
The tops were then painted with a dark green (again from B&M)
And then finally a stippling or sponging of Orruk flesh from GW.
