"Some bamboo thickets?"
Yes, just some. It transpires that 249 bamboo stems was only enough to do the largest base and two of the smaller bases. Actually, it was 244 stems that I used, having "sacrificed" five to be cut in half to see how shorter stems would look. It turns out that they looked "wrong" I've ordered another 500 stems this afternoon, so will have to wait until they arrive before I can do any more thicket bases.
And a top-down view of all three bases:
While I wait for the extra bamboo to arrive, I will start work on trees for secondary and primary jungle bases. I have been prepping some of the "chunky trunk" palms - I should have those ready for painting by next week. Alongside that work, I will be painting the undersides of a bunch of terrain bases and working on the tree bases I got from Charlie Foxtrot Models.
Grand sight!
ReplyDeleteI see your "Humans vs Triffids" campaign is off to a fine start. I don't give much for humanity's chances!

They turned out brilliant Tamsin. Great job I like the pathways through them as well.
ReplyDeleteThanks! I had to thin out the stems a bit on the large piece to make the paths a little easier to access. Also so that I would have enough to fill out the smaller pieces! :)
DeleteThose look rather fabulous Tamsin, well done m'dear!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Curt! :)
