The original shabby looking hills |
First I drew an outline approx 1 inch around the base |
I then turned the hill upside down and traced its outline before cutting it out. |
With plenty of PVA glue I began sticking down the top first followed by the sides. Small cuts were made to the sides to ensure an even covering. |
A side by side comparison |
The three finished hills |
When I got to the third hill my daughter decided that she would provide "assistance". To say this one took longer than the other two put together would be an understatement. But she enjoyed it. Total time to touch the three hills was about half an hour, now just to leave them over night to dry. Next up I am putting together some woods aimed at my 15mm figures. I am using small offcuts of MDF. Will post some pictures over the next few days.
Nice job. I have some gamey and unfinished terrain from the same time period. Time for a makeover.
