Since I started making war-game tables for land battles I have always:
1) Painted the board brown / green
2) Let it dry
3) Spread glue
4) Added flock
5) Add scenic cement / watered down glue
Having had a quick scout around I see every site uses the same method as I do but it struck me last night - why not just add the flock while the paint is still wet
I've seen lots of sites adding sand to the paint for desert terrain but not flock after...
Could it be the paint will soak into the flock?
I normally paint the colour on thinly to cover the wood just incase the flock rubs off but if I add a drying agent to delay the setting time or even put it on a bit thicker would it work?
Am I missing something (other than brain cells)?
Thanks
