My Elephant Grass Project
« on: February 01, 2014, 10:55:57 PM »
Hi All,

  My Africa game scheduled for today had to be delayed, so I took then time to work on my elephant grass project. 


I still have a lot to go, and this isn't the fastest way to make it, but I like the way it is looking.  If you want to details on how I'm putting it together, I have a build article on the blog.

That works really well. There's similar tall grasses all over the place, there's some in scene in Generation Kill (filmed in southern Africa) which looks like 15mm vehicles in 28mm terrain.

Hi Joekano,

nice idea with the elephant grass.

I had a look on your blog. The paint job and design on your Masai shields is really amazing. Like it!!

Thank you!  Considering how great your figures look, that is quite a compliment.

Very good.  But the paint job on the figures is even better.  Superb work!
