Port San Ecila
Farmhouse and Palm Trees.
I decided I needed one more building for the dockside, which gave me the excuse to buy the Sarrisma Precision’s Mediterranean Farm House, which will nicely double up for a Claremont Town House for my Kelly’s Heroes game.
Building was given a base Wraithbone Rattle can spray, with wall colouring, doors and roof painted with various Contrast and Speedpaints.
The roof effect was a complete flook in that I tried slightly thinned GW Flesh tearers Red, which did its usual blobbing, but did it neatly within the tile impressions!
Next I decided I needed to eek out the Jungle with some Palm trees as I didn’t have any, so a srch on E-bay, some old bases and a few sticky tufts and voila!
Many years ago I brought a tub of toy Dinosaurs for a Dino Hunting game,which had two fairly yuk painted Palm Trees , I had completely forgot about and were only remembered as they were still sitting in the tub in Games room.
I used ome Textured paint on the bases and a speed paint Forest Green on both the trunk and the leaves, over the original bright colours which gave an unexpected variation in the foliage and here again added some sticky foliage clumps and am very pleased with result.
