Title: gardening with Duhamel
Post by: duhamel on July 10, 2010, 09:32:36 AM: hello

chairface asked me to do a tutorial on the vegetation on the bases. and as I still had a wood finish, I want to do.
first step: collect the material. I use many different spraying, some models of trade, and also things found. and I sprayed some mixtures, myself. one might think that a lot of flocking, but that's what I've accumulated over the years and there is not a year that I make miniature. for the rest I'll show you during the day with photos if I do not nap with pinacolada: it's too hot! lol

Post by: duhamel on July 10, 2010, 02:40:11 PM: are the latest pictures. there is not much else to add, except to use different flocking.
Small flowers nothing complicated, my 6 year old daughter the glue on the bases.
if you have any questions please, I'll be happy to answer

I agree.

Post by: Hammers on July 14, 2010, 09:51:39 AM: Very cool thread, duhamel. We have not covered flowers and stuff this way much before.

One comment I'd like to make is that I think that sponge material for tree foliage comes out too uni-coloured to look natural. I often sprinkle a bit of course, light green flock on top to mix things up a bit.

j'apprécie ton boulot ! ;)

excellent job . always at the top of terrain work.
Could you show us how you made the tree foliage

ch'ti Eric
Title: Re: gardening with Duhamel
Post by: duhamel on July 24, 2010, 04:56:11 PM: désolé Eric, je n'avais pas vu la question...
pour les arbres c'est pas compliqué. je choisis une branche qui me plait pour faire mon tronc, dans laquelle je perce quelques trous pour ajouter des branches ici ou là.
pour les feuilles c'est juste de la mousse woodland scenics, c'est compacte et tu as juste à arracher des morceaux de feuillages, et les coller ou tu veux

Sorry Eric, I had not seen the question ...
for trees is not complicated. I choose a branch that I like to do my trunk, where I drill a few holes to add branches here and there.
it's just for the leaves of woodland scenics foam is compact and you just broke off pieces of leaves, and stick them where you want

Post by: nervisfr on July 24, 2010, 05:27:25 PM: ok, j'apprécie le matériel Woodland Scenic.
Pour ma part j'utilise de la fine paille de fer pour casserole pour le gros des feuillages...recouvert d'herbe woodland Scenic

Woodland Scenic has good material for terrain work.

Post by: Mr. Peabody on July 24, 2010, 05:29:34 PM: Pis les p'tits fleurs blanches? What are they made of? I have not seen white flocking before.

I think the tiny white flowers are a great touch; a real 'spark' of nature.
