    So, what with GW releasing the Idoneth Deepkin, I decided to try my hand at making some "underwater - yet still on dry land" scatter terrain for them.

    Used broken bits of Plaster of Paris this time and the paint is only washed and drybrushes - no priming whatsoever.

    The plants are from an Aquarium and the critters are cheap plastic toys that aren't glued down so can easily be moved / removed.

    More Jungle scenery coming SOON - my Armies on Display board will be a much bigger and new version of my waterfall you have seen already :)

    C&Cs welcome and appreciated.

    Will the plaster not crack and chip over time?

    They are all on CDs.

    Plaster might chip and crack? Maybe, one of the reasons I was trying it out to see how to use it - seems to be ok so far :)

    I have a lot more pics which I can put up if people want - mainly of the construction.

    C&Cs welcome as always

    I really like the idea, but find that unpainted aquarium/plant bits look completely out of place next to miniatures until they're painted...

    I think they look fine...about 95% right. Oh I live in a tropical country so I see this stuff everyday :)

    It's not about accuracy to real life plants, it's about accuracy at scale. If you like them, that's all good.

    Fair enough, that is a good point. Finding accurate-scale grass for 28-ish-mm is hard in a hobby store... but a lot cheaper :D

    Hey I'm back!

    This Corona thing* means I'm slowly working through my unpainted pile and I re-cracked open my SC box.
    (I'm a high school teacher in Vietnam...schools have been shut down since mid January)

    Anyway...not a great light picture, but I did my warriors today.
    20200313_154210.jpg

    More to come as Schools will be out for at least another 3 weeks.
