And then I made some tufts for the Nubians (and maybe the Sea Peoples if I have any left over).:
2mm static grass |
Mix of 2 and 4mm static grass |
Close-up of the mixed length tufts |
Unfortunately I had a clumsy moment as I was picking up one of the tuft sheets to move it elsewhere to dry:
The squidged tufts should still be usable though.
After a quick break I cracked on with adding grit and sand to the Nubians' bases:
They'll need to dry out overnight, then tomorrow evening I'll seal them with diluted PVA. Tufts and maybe some other foliage will be added on Saturday after I've sprayed them with matt varnish. These will be the last pics until after they've been submitted.
Tomorrow evening I'll also be putting the finishing touches to the grav vehicles - washes and detailing.
The nubians are looking excellent. You sold me on the flock box with one of your earlier posts. It arrived a few days ago, so I am eager to give it a go myself.
ReplyDeleteLove the tufts!
ReplyDeleteCorking work on both the tufts and the Nubians, Tamsin. They both look awesome!! :-)
ReplyDeleteLove those Nubians! Special mention for the baggage group.

ReplyDelete"grave vehicles" eh? We call them "hearses" in Australia!
ReplyDeleteWhat price are you doing a sheet of Tufts for ? And what colours?
ReplyDeleteThese Nubians are looking great.
Love the Nubes, but love the tufts even more!
