Hi Roger,

I am intrigued with your groundwork, as I need something like it for a group I want to put on a base. What does it consist of?

Cheers
Chris

 

[Ulrich]

Very nice figure, Roger. But where is his left hand?

Hi Roger,

The groundwork consists of a layer of Miliput, followed by a mixture of PVA glue Burnt Umber acrylic paint and model railway gravel. Once dry I have it a dry brush with two or three lighter acrylic earthtones.
Wait for that to dry and then a coat of PVA followed by the secret ingredient....

Very nice figure, Roger. But where is his left hand?

Thank you Ulrich. His left hand is partially obscured by the tail of his coat. You can see the back of the hand but the fingers are hidden from view.

Thank you Roger. Love the secret ingredient - so versatile!!

Your welcome Chris, other herbs work just as well and mixing them is also an option but that's the one I used on this particular base.

Excellent warmth and vibrance to your colors, Roger! You really trick the eye, that it could be a three-dimensional figure. Well done!

Prost!
