In this tutorial we will see how to create and paint earthy bases with grass<\/strong> in a very simple way, which we can use to decorate our bases for all kinds of wargames.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Let’s Start!<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Base creation<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Firstly, Earth Texture Brown Earth<\/a> 26.219 is applied all over the base and small stones or pieces of cork are placed on it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Rocks and washes<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The rocks are painted usingSurface Primer Black<\/a> 70.602.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Once dry, the rocks are painted using Model Color Neutral Grey<\/a> 70.992.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Apply a black wash on the rocks using Game Wash Black Wash<\/a> 73.201<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

A sepia wash is applied over the earth using Game Wash Sepia Wash<\/a> 73.200.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Using a flat tip brush, a dry brush is made on the rocks using Game Color Cold Grey<\/a> 72.050.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

To give it an extra lighting, a second dry brush is made using Game Color Stonewall Grey 72.049<\/a>, this time only on some of the rock edges.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Edge of the bases<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The edge of the base is painted using Model Color German Camouflage Black Brown<\/a> 70.822<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Vegetation & Grass<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

At this point, we are ready to start adding vegetation and grass to the base.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I will show you different combinations of vegetation so that you can see all the large number of options we have.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

PVA glue is applied to some points on the base.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

We spread static grass flock over the areas where we applied the PVA glue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Tufts from Vallejo’s Scenery range are added. In this case the Wild Tuft Mixed Green<\/a> SC416 reference has been added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Below, multiple combinations will be shown using different types of tufts from Vallejo’s Scenery range. Here you can see the Wild Tuft Green<\/a> SC406 reference .<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

At the same time, different tufts can be combined. Here are the Wild Dark Moss<\/a> SC402 and Wild Tuft – Mixed Green<\/a> SC416 references.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

And in the following example we see a base with only Wild Tuft Green<\/a> SC406 tufts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Combining Wild Tuft Light Green<\/a> SC407 and Wild Tuft Dense Beige<\/a> SC412, we got a dry base.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

You can also add fantasy tufts, to simulate alien planets. In this case, the reference Fantasy Tuft Neon<\/a>SC430 has been used.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

In this exampleFantasy Tuft Fire<\/a> SC431 has been used.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Finally, one last sample using Fantasy Tuft Blue<\/a> SC434.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n
