A real miniatures artist, David Smith, encouraged me to coat the textured base in watered down white glue before the inking, dry brushing and static grass. When it dries it makes the ground quite hard and does a really nice job of keeping all the ballast on the stand and from chipping off.<br /> Another collector, Matt Pavone also taught me to drybrush after putting the static grass on (being sure the glue holding it on is quite dry) with the same color highlights, both on the exposed balast and the grass. It acts as an addition adhesive for the grass, helps it standup better and makes the grass look less football pitch like. <br /><br />Just a couple of things I do that I thought you might give a try.<br /><br />Best,<br /><br />ChrisChrisbumphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12130234415017047875noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6504742686650223041.post-46268452250760525772010-09-29T10:26:00.246-05:002010-09-29T10:26:00.246-05:00Nice use of ink.
