Here are the terrain stands I was embarking on last month. I am pleased at how they turned out, and have learned a healthy respect for hot glue guns in the process.
Elves shooting from the foliage. They look at home, I think.
I think that mixed with some proper tree models, they will make a very convincing representation of Fangorn or Mirkwood, or some other fantasy setting for Dragon Rampant. May not work for the bocage of Normandy, however. I have enough plastic foliage left to make another ten stands, when the spirit moves me to do so.
Blessings to your gardens!

Looking good, Padre. It's the little splashes of colour that help sell it.
ReplyDeleteThanks Barks, I agree. It's tempting just to paint figures, but I find it's refreshing to put a little time into these side projects while imagining all the pieces going together on the gaming table.
DeleteGreat looking foliage!
ReplyDeleteBest Iain
Thanks Iain!
DeleteI'm thinking that there should be a stand in which a bunch of succulents surround a more dubious plant. One that has acquired a taste for protein....
ReplyDeleteThe plants have worked out really well and will grace your (or any) wargames table. I particularly like the picture of the elf amongst them.

Well I think you have to be pleased with these, wonderful results Michael.
ReplyDeleteReally cool Michael! I love them.
ReplyDeleteI think these are excellent. I like the splashes of color mixed in with all the green. The variety of vegetation adds some realism too.
ReplyDeletePerfect! And should you ever invest in an exotic reptile, they can double up for in-terrarium decor!
ReplyDeleteExclellent stuff, Padre, very Elvish!
ReplyDeleteVery, very nice. You're right - terrain making is a very different challenge, but one which makes a nice change once in a while.
