Ploughed Field 2/3

For my second field, starting out similarly to the first. I decided to try adding hedges instead of fences this time. From a previous test we ran using scouring pads glued to pvc plastic. The glue didn't hold all too well. Having a heap of hedges sitting around, I decided to hot glue them to the edges of the field.

Using a knife, I cut up some sections of the hedges to look like a vehicle had passed through -- mostly for detail. I then cut up some of the 5cm Hobby Sticks and made a gate. As this dried, I moved onto painting the hedges, looking to brighten them up a bit. I ran a few different tests on spare scouring pads to see which I liked most. I found that Deep Green as a base, followed by a dry brush of Deep Green mixed with Warm Yellow making a lighter, warmer tone worked very nicely.





I then dry brushed the gate and glued it into place. Around the base of the board, I added more gravel and painted it up to look like rocks, again, adding some detail to the board. This time, I decided to add some homemade clump foliage following the guide of Mel the Terrain Tutor, I added it around the edges to simulate bushes. Finally, I finished off with static flock and grass tufts to look like a lush, Green ploughed field.
