Making a Mole Hill Out of a Mountain Part 4

[Dr Mathias]

Hmmm, texture goo. That could prove useful

Hey guys, I survived the trip to Texas! I had a lot of fun while I was there and got to visit with some family.

Here’s another picture of the hills we’re working on. The one on the left has about 2 ½ coats of texture goo. After that Dad added some flat goo to the horizontal surfaces of the terrain. This made it turn out really cool. Now it’s ready for some additional weathering/colors.

The hill on the right already has its first layer of texture goo. Comparing it with the one on the left you can really tell what a difference the extra layers make.

That’s me in the background playing the cello. Dad likes it when I play the Godfather Theme while he works on his projects. He says it provides the appropriate mad scientist atmosphere.





We’re already working on the next step, so there will be more to come soon!

Here you can see that we added the colorization to the piece on the left. There were several layers of different colors and a wash. Next we will be adding the foliage.

You can also see what the flat goo looks like when it’s on the terrain. (The flat goo is Elmer’s Wood Filler) We apply it with a painter’s knife and spread it over the surface. There are some spots on the horizontal surfaces we leave rough for variation

I think they will be really fun in play. The layers match up really well so you can jump between the two rocks.

Your hills look very good.
I am in a hill making mood right now.
Here's a thread of some stuff I made.

Lots of good ideas in your thread.
I will have to try some of them out.
Thanks for sharing.

Fun.  The "stepped" piece in particular should cause some interesting Line of Sight effects.

I'm liking those mole-hils.

I blame the Welsh. They're always causing trouble like that.

Here are a couple pics of the hills we’ve been working on. We may eventually add some more foliage, grass, and details, but for now we’re considering them finished....






THANKS!

Really like how they turned out.
They match with your terrain very well.

[NewEvolutionGames]

Amazing as always, Dave and Mila.

One of these days, you will have to tell me how you did your old pieces of 40k terrain. I still haven't figured it out after all these years.

Great, would also have to steal this idea, sorry.
Keep it up.

Great, would also have to steal this idea, sorry.

What he said.

This is a great idea, well executed. I may just try and build one of my own. Thanks for sharing!

Kelly Moore paint store has KEL SEAL brushble and trowlable caulking in a tub, runs 31$ a gallong, sometimes its in quarts. Both smooth and textured.

I Know that Bengamin Moore paint store also carries their own version of the smooth and textured caulking in a tub or can, I forget at the moment.
