75th Anniversary of Battle of Monte Cassino and Northern Italy (Terrain Build)
Trenches - Finished
I’ve now completed the trenches!
Following the base paint step, I gave the wood and sandbags a brush on dip layer to give some shade and to protect the paint. Once dry, I gave the whole thing a dry brush of wych flesh.
I gently brushed some black pigment powder into the craters to create a burnt, blast effect and then started flocking. I’ve used three separate flocks and clump foliage for the bases. Once this was applied, I sprayed the whole thing with watered down PVA to seal it in and then brushed on a matt varnish to the wood and sand bags to remove any shine form the glue. All done!

All of the completed pieces - 17 in total or 68" in game terms
And for scale, with some German defenders
