War of the Pacific Coastal Terrain Repaint

The terrain modules as they are now....

...and as they will look after a repaint (I hope)

I'm thinking of repainting my existing coast terrain modules for the War of the Pacific naval games I've been playing and for a potential mini-campaign. I originally painted them with a green vegetation effect on the top but have now decided to make some new terrain modules for temperate areas, so can revert the old ones to a desert finish. This will mean a basecoat and successive layers of paint to match the finish on the cliffs and cover up the offending green bits, so nothing too complicated. I am also going to make a few more sections using the left over bits of high density foam that I've saved, including a port or coastal town, for example, so that I can run some blockade scenarios, shore bombardments and amphibious landing games.

  2. I'm looking forward to seeing the coastal town.

    Although for the cliffs, maybe you just need some desert cloth to cover the grass. Then you can still use them for other locations.
