Terrain Building Guides: Making undergrowth, part 2

Time to get back to my pieces of undergrowth.

After the foamboard has dried onto place upon the bases its time to add some wood filler. I generally tend to cover most of my terrain projects this way. It adds some texture and makes it more durable as well as evening out edges.


5) Wood filler added


Now I add a few pebbles in clusters which will act as bigger rocks near the egdes of the foamboard. I used superglue for this as it saves some drying time and let me get onto the next step quickly.


6) Pebbles in place


After the pebbles I add patches of sand around the pebbles as well as some small random areas  around and on the foamboard. I use PVA glue for this step.


7) Bases sanded


And now its time to let it dry. As PVA takes time and I don't want to ruin the terrain pieces I will let them dry overnight so watch out for part 3 of this undergrowth saga, when I paint, flock and finish the pieces!
