3d printed the skeleton and glued it to some mdf board. Primed with wraithbone, and hit em with Agrax Earthshade.

Covered it in a layer of Vallejo earth texture, then mud technical paint patches in a few places. Spattered Elmer’s glue about, then looooots of army painter grass.

While that dried, I ordered mode train terrain trees, plants, and army painter underbrush. Glued that around, then hit the bones and rocks with Vallejo lichen randomly.

Thought it might be cool to hang vines and stuff from the ribs, but want to move on to the next project~

I like them a lot! Finished terrain really elevates games over using cardboard and stacked books.

If you’re planning on doing future big projects, I can say from experience there are a lot of cost cutting hacks. I use my own home wash ink based washes for terrain projects. A little upfront investment, but much cheaper by volume than agrax.

I use the formula from this video but there’s lots of options out there.

Thanks! And yes lesson learned real fast how much paint is used hitting these things. I’ve since switched from citadel primers to rustoleum and citadel technical to Vallejo. Now the link you provided will be the next step to glory
