I have posted a tutorial in my blog about terrain making. The subject there was a terrain for some figures at 1/48, but the same principal applys to smaller scales. So here it is.
Base for the dragon's teeth at 1/48, and the starter set for European terrains.
For the contours of the terrain we used Das Pronto air curing modelling clay, available in almost every hypermarket.
The next step is the work preparation for the actual terrain. We use PVA glue, the terrain starter set, a fine sieve, an old brush and a plastic cup for the mixing.
Mix the PVA glue with the pigment from the terrain set.
Apply the mix on the base.
Use the sieve to select the smallest rocks and rock dust.
Do the same with the ground cover material.
Add more pigment.
Spread it over the base.
After this we have to remove the excess, i.e. whatever doesn't stick rightaway.
In another cup we mix various types of grass, which we are going to apply with a pair of tweezers.
When the terrain is almost finished, we paint the dragon's teeth with Stone Grey from Vallejo.
For everything to be ready we only have to add some figures, give it a wash and give some age to the dragon's teeth. But the terrain is then 'already ready'...!.
