I painted the picture frame that I bought at the weekend with my knock off pot of Homebase Cashmere emulsion paint, added some spray splodges of Halfords Ultra Matt Khaki then dry brushed the whole lot with a tester pot of Laura Ashley Old Gold. I'm quite pleased with the end result, although I should have been more generous with the acrylic paste beforehand, so that all of the canvas was completely covered.
I'll be using this terrain board for the No End in Sight post colonial project but also for many other things including Strontium Dog, Fistful of Lead:Viva la Revolution! and Gruntz Sci Fi / Near Future games to name but a few, so it has been well worth the ten quid I paid for it. I now need to make some hills but I already have some Battlefield in a Box plastic ones that might just do the job, if I re-painted them in matching desert colours.
That look great- not too small ifyou game in 15mm either.

Good result for only a little outlay and effort.
ReplyDeleteEven the Mrs was mildly impressed 👍
ReplyDeleteThat came out pretty good indeed. Nice job. 😀
ReplyDeleteIt's not bad...only used a tiny bit of my cheapo emulsion paint as well..so loads left over for other terrain bits and bobs.
