Praetorian - Building up the groundwork

[Cicero]

Hi all,

My next step in the Praetorian project: building up the base.

The basic groundwork has been accomplished. When everything will be dry, static grass and other vegetation will be added. Then the complete base will be airbrushed.

Hi all,

Some more progress: the static and tall gras were added. I also airbrushed the groundwork in its base colour (Humbrol olive drab M66). Now I can start with the weathering of the groundwork ...

Hi Guy,

Thanks for the comments. Hope to show my next step very soon ...

Hi Patrick,

Thanks mate, but let me remind you of and old saying in Dutch: "het vel van den beer nooit verkopen voor dattem geschoten is!" (never sell the hide of a bear before you actually shot/killed the beast).

Anyway, thanks for the encouragement.

Johan,
I think it is gonna be a showstopper. But time is running out.

Thanks Marc. I can asure you that the figure will be ready in time, even if it costs me a few nights of uninterrupted work!
