6mm Tree Tutorial

6mm Tree Tutorial

So on Facebook I was asked to make a short tutorial on how I made my forest markers.  Hopefully this helps anyone looking to make the some similar ones.  Might make a video for our clubs new YouTube channel.

If you would like to purchase these wonderful bases please visit Proxie Models.

Step one was to glue some cork-board materiel onto the base, I used a template to roughly cut out the cork about 10-15mm smaller than the base.

Step two was to use some Vallejo pumice to cover the edge of the base and then I primed it with some brown spray paint.

Step three was to dry brush the pumice and then start gluing foliage onto the top in a random pattern using a hot glue gun.
