Slowly working through a backlog of terrain projects. I bought some flexible roads from
Novus Design about 6 months ago, they are prepainted but really in the most rudimentary fashion. I have planned to dry brush them to improve their look and finally got to it today. Took less then an hour and i used juste 3 colours.

| As you can see from the top piece the only prep done by the company was to paint some free patches and to put a dark wash around the stones. My first step was to dry brush the whole piece Mocha trying to avoid the green patches only. |
 |
| The next step was to dry brush the green with a very bright yellow and the stones with a unbleached titanium |
 |
| This is about half of what I did in an hour |

I think they came out OK and are a definite improvement. I could have gone with a dark and light grey on the larger stones and may do so some day but they are good for now. I have maybe 20ft of road that is good for my usual 6x4 tabletop. I have seen a lot of roads and have bought a few these are the best I have come across so far.
They look good!
ReplyDeleteNice work. You've inspired me to have a go.
ReplyDeleteThey are well worth it.
DeleteExcellent job with these roads!
ReplyDeleteThanks Phil
DeleteReally good job, what an improvement.
ReplyDeleteThanks George, I think it is.
DeleteWell, that's a very dramatic improvement, for an excellent final result. My Favorited roads were the flex terrain ones by Editions Brokaw; unfortunately, they are long out of production so I have suipplemented them with others.
ReplyDeleteThanks Peter, I am looking forward to see how the rivers work our from the recent kickstarter.
DeleteThese look terrific John!
ReplyDeleteThanks Curt.
