I've seen it employed in GW's Trench Wars, but couldn't quite figure out the best way to recreate it. Thanks for the tutorial. I'm suffering withdrawl symptoms at the moment, wishing I'd brought some stuff with me to paint or craft while on holiday. <br />DiggerDiggerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00509766634414187857noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3279786472578722137.post-43070381719910129242012-08-05T10:20:11.773+01:002012-08-05T10:20:11.773+01:00Thanks Airhead.

Yes, the "paint on PVA" method seems like the most sensible and sane....but you need to go a bit more radical with the large clumps of foliage to "knit" the clumps together with the PVA glue.Sidney Roundwoodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14795563060856586670noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3279786472578722137.post-70467640750236828742012-08-05T10:15:11.901+01:002012-08-05T10:15:11.901+01:00Greece - you lucky chap.
