So a surprise project for me last week was one of my Games Workshop Woods.  I’ve had three of them sitting around doing nothing for quite a while now (two of them brown-primed), and while chatting with some of the guys on Hangout I got the urge to bring it out and start working on it.

Well, two nights later I went from this (plus one more tree)…

to this…

Now, I can appreciate that this terrain piece isn’t ‘finished.’  There is no grass flocking and there are no leaves.  I’m going to leave it like this for now, and after playing with it see how I feel about them not having grass.  The leaves I will leave off this model.  Maybe the next one will get some, or the last one.  But this is going to be a ‘barren’ wood, partway to being a dead wood.

Not much to say about this piece, since I didn’t add too much.  But I used some cheapo paints, mixed in with some P3 and GW stuff.  The trees got (DecoArt) Burnt Umber, and the ground got  (DecoArt) Cinnamon Brown.  The rocks were (P3) Trollblood Highlight and the moss got (P3) Battledress Green.  Then I hit the rocks with (GW) Badab Black, watered down.

And voila, a wood template.

You know what, I just decided, I’m going to add some grass.  Without, it looks just a little too barren.

But now back to Ogres and other stuff :)

Thanks for reading.
