Washed UP, 1490 Doom diorama board #TerrainFest2025
Barnacling
Over the busy festive period I grabbed time where I could and documented very little. Details were added throughout; I created lamps from polystyrene extrusion, “fleshed” out the butchery table and drying racks, draped rope and canvas over most surfaces, etc.
Next I sealed the EVA foam rock faces with a mixture of equal parts PVA, acrylic paint, gesso, and water, with a few drops of dish soap to aid surface tension.
I then decided I wanted more texture on the rock faces and spent over five hours adding milliput barnacles, using a selection of ball styluses, to every recess that I imagined would regularly be submerged by tides. I applied the milliput in small lumps and used the larger stylus to push them into shape and add deep recesses then about 30 mins later as it began to cure I textured the raised areas further with smaller styluses.
































Love it. This looks excellent.
Thank you, this is by far the largest project I have tackled, but so far it’s close to my original vision.
This looks fantastic, loving all the detail.
Thank-you, detailing is my favourite stage, I need to stop though or it wont be painted in time
What a fantastic project, what size is the round base?
Its a 2ft board (or close enough)
