Redvers and Son Get Into Bushido

As Terrainfest is running at the moment, I thought I would get some of the extra terrain that I have lying around finished and off of the painting desk. With that in mind, I’ve completed a few pieces that I picked up from Master Crafted https://mastercrafted.co.uk/

First up we have three rice bale stacks. These can be purchased as part of your war band and are very common in competitive games as they can provide cover as well as blocking off lines of movement.

Painting wise, I took the line of least resistance here and went with a khaki basecoat followed by a heavy brown wash. From there, I painted the ropes with a light brown and then just dry brushed everything, first with Khaki and then Iraqi Sand. A quick flock and job done.

Next up we have a prayer rock. This comes in two pieces and required some careful pinning and then I shoved a lot of polyfilla inside it to give it some weight (the sphere is hollow). The base rock was painted luftwaffe grey and, with a break from tradition, rather than a black wash, I applied a nightshade blue wash, which I think I prefer to the black and this might be my new rock wash. A light grey dry brush followed.

The sphere was given a Halfords yellow primer spray followed by a light brown wash. I’ve then dry brushed it with middlestone and Iraqi sand to try to create a sandstone look. The rope was scruffulous brown, with a wash and then highlighted. A light green for the tassels, then a dark green ink and then a very light green dry brush. Flock and scatter added to cover the joins between the two pieces.
