Wow... this just keeps getting more epic. Even just primed that's one of the best things I've seen all year! Now... are you going to try and paint that all assembled? Please tell me the adventurers, dragon etc. are removable so you can reach everything!

Wonderful reall ! I really like the very Oldschool touch. How do you paint the grass parts ? It seems so good. Actually, any tips on materials and techniques will be appreciated. ^^

Thanks man! :)
The grass (or moss as I was heading for) was made of fine sawdust mixed with color and pva glue... stirred to a porrigde then applied in blobs. when it dried it roughtly stayed in the shape it was applied as. Then it was inked and drybrusched to add some slight difference in color.
The lower levels are darker and more sick. The higher levels are healthier and brighter.

Hope this helps as my tip to you!
If you wonder on anything else... just ask ! :)
