New Scatter Terrain, Part Two (Finished!)

Finished up the new pieces of scatter terrain I started last week. Mostly, I’ve spent a lot of time the last four days or so waiting for glue to dry! Do one stage of greenery, wait for glue, next bit of greenery, wait for glue, add second coat of glue to really secure everything, wait for glue… You get the idea!

First layer of greenery, my usual mix of flock and ground foam, with coarse ground foam bushes. Click for larger.

The bushes are coarse ground foam from Woodland Scenics, soaked in dilute white glue and pressed gently into place, then set aside for at least 24 hours to dry. They’re solid enough once dry you can lift the smaller pieces of terrain by them, although I don’t recommend doing this regularly!

Lichen added to the trees, caveman for scale. Click for larger.

The lichen got hot-glued into place, and I was finally able to declare these terrain pieces done!

All the pieces – three 6″ rock wall pieces, three 3″x2″ fields/gardens, five random-shaped scatter pieces. Copplestone 28mm caveman for scale. Click for larger.
