The PVA can dry overnight and paint should occur shortly. :D
As I had a spare base, some time and inspiration left, I decided to build a little extra:
A simple sacred rock. It's about twice as high as a 28mm miniature, so it's suitably impressive on the table.
My usual foamed PVC base, an actual rock, hot glue, basing sand and ballast. With a PVA-drenched length of sisal as Shimenawa and foil from some tube of foodstuff to make the Shide. I hope to paint it alongside/after the bamboo. With the trees I already have for (western) wargaming and the Torii I painted recently, I should be able to do a reasonably convincing small Japanese forest/wilderness table. Now I just need to get sufficient minis painted so I can give some rule sets a trial run, Daisho being on the top of that list.
See you next time!
Looking impressive, good luck with the painting.
BeantwoordenVerwijderenThank you! I'm hoping to get the brushes out this afternoon.
VerwijderenLooks lovely!
BeantwoordenVerwijderenIf you'd like I could let my Bushido undead (Cult of Yurei) run/shamble havoc on your terrain in a match 😊.
Thanks! I don't own or play Bushido myself, but we could try statting them up for Daisho?
VerwijderenThat's what I was aiming for 😊.
VerwijderenWhat figures do you have? I'll take a shot at statting them up. ;)
VerwijderenQuite hypnotic and relaxing as is - small wonder the Japanese wrote lyrical about Bamboo forests.
BeantwoordenVerwijderenVery true. The building was quite relaxing as well. Coincidentally, I visited a botanical garden which has a large collection of bamboo species yesterday. It was slightly breezy and the sounds of the bamboo in the wind was like the ocean waves, very soothing. A shame I can't get my scale bamboo to make that same sound. :D
