Bushido Game board
It's coarse. And it gets everywhere...
Sorry for that title. It felled kind of a requirement.
The mixture had not fully dried. This stuff takes a while and the night had been less dry than I hoped. Still, good enough.
I covered everything I wanted covered in sand with watered down pva, making sure not to cover to much of the rocks, which I wanted to jut out.
I did this in parts. Cover a part in pva, cover MOST of that in sand and slatter more in pva. Drying took a while. When it was done I shook of the excess sand.
this showed some splodges that I didn’t cover. see picture.
I corrected this and also layered some of the watered pva on the tiles and stairs. This will stop the foam from melting when I spray the primer, but also protects it from damage during play.
In the meantime I dug these out. They will mostly be objectives during the game, but now was as good a time to paint them as any.
I painted them the same as the statues, to which I also added an extra wash of armypainter strong tone (diluted) and some splodges of camo green to emulate mossy growths.
When the board was dry enough, I added one more stage.
Shaking it excess sand, I put some watered down pva in spray bottle and gave it a good covering. This should seal it in real good when dry. Leave it to dry till tomorrow. Hope I might get some painting done on it.
