Title: Enhanced Terrain Boards
Post by: ian220756 on 14 August 2021, 10:55:32 AM
Hi I recently took some terrain boards made for me by TM Terrain and decided to make them look a lot more like real Spain as in overgrown - so I planted 900 various sized and coloured tufts and then dry brushed them two shades to blend in - all 40mm

Those are some impressively large terrain boards!
Adding in the tufts and other growies really make it look more real!

Superb! ...and inspiring. I don't have many rocky hills and mountains for such climates.

Best part about this is that it strikingly improves the look without affecting playability. A lot of times all the extra tufts and gee-gaws get in the way, but those steep slopes prevent figures from standing there anyway. Well done!

I didn’t think it was possible to enhance those already magnificent boards but I was wrong! It looks so real :-*
