    The more correct answer is roll it up in a rough ball and roll it across the surface. The imperfections of the foil ball create random butts and dents in the foam, making it look like carved stones ;)

    Test assembly/dryfitting:

    It needs some refinements and finishing touches before it is ready to paint. Then comes the real assembly.

    Comments and ideas are welcome.

    Thank you both :):)

    I say it is tedious work. And in the end the indents weren't deep enough to propperly drybrush it :(
    So now I am painting it tile per tile :confused::confused:

    I hope the end result is worth it

    Grrr, Imrahil

    Last Monday was my spawning day.
    I persuaded my twin brother to buy a double sided gaming mat(3'x4') to have our future episodes of Battle Companies on.

    Also this is the first hobby related gift I have gotten on my birthday ever :eek:

    The first side is completely paved. Scenery for this side still needs to be developed ;) :

    The other side (grasslands) will see the most use at first:

    Couldn’t you just give it a wash? Or still wouldn’t work?

    Sadly not, the dark part is based and washed, but the tiles don't stand out much.
    Also I deluded the paint for the basecoat so I wouldn't run out of paint that quick

    There is progress, be it slowly.

    I finished the tile floor :rolleyes::):)
    Now on to some wall 'primer'

    20210709_002005.jpg 20210709_002222.jpg

    When this is dry I will pick out random bricks to differ in color (Brown, dark grey and light grey). After that a heavy drybrush of light grey and a black wash.
    (Perhaps in between even a white drybrush)

    Grrr, Imrahil
