    We go through the different types of mats from companies such as noch, javis and modelscene, as well explaining how to use the different types of static / flock grass mats, what mats suit what scenery, best glues and practices as well as taking you through using a diorama modelling mate to really bring a wargaming terrain piece to life!

    Great tips and tricks this guy, he is also full of energy, some of the other tutorials I been watching nearly put me to sleep, smooth music soft talking. this guy is fun, got me some cliffs made up for my own table, that expanding foam stuff is great for hills.

    mel, a good tips vid, thanks. I know you're constantly learning with this technology lark, can i for the future recommend a change to your close camera? you're left handed so film your super close camera from over your right shoulder, that way we can always see the terrain as you work on it. Other than that, a really helpful video, thanks.

    That's excellent! I have acquired a horse for my action figures and I was stressing about how to make the paddock look realistic especially at the edges near the horse itself..
    You can only take so many photos looking over a stable door lol! I am quite proud of my horse...he is looking quite real so deserves a nice setting. I will go and try to find this stuff...You would be surprised at how much stuff for horses (1:6th that is) you can find in the pet aisle of the local supermarket Lol!

    For me, the most spectacular material for making very realistic models of trees and shrubs is the teloxis aristata (seafoam tree).

      Until I found your tutorials I was at a loss about how to set up Field Trial Events for my model dog figurines. Everything I tried looked.....well, let's say horrible and unrealistic. Now, I am confident I can set up Field Trial scenes that will be realistically functional. I host the Model Canine Collectors Online Show for people who collect dog figurines. Members set up their dogs for AKC dog shows, agility, flyball, hunting trials, dock diving and more. Now I can show my members how to set up their scenes and will be recommending they visit your tutorials. You're a PEACH!!! I'm from a southern state in the US and when someone says You're a PEACH that is a good thing. Sincerely PugHappy

    I don't really know where to ask this, but I want to start in 28mm Bolt Action or Chain of Command and I was wondering how much terrain I would need, as in how many meters of hedges and small walls, how many scatter pieces, and if I would need buildings.
