BoLS community, I need your help! :D
Due to the fact that I don't think I'll be able to fund much more into warhammer 40k, I want to do one last army to a high standard (good painting, fluff and the likes). So, I've chosen to do an IG army (not a cheesy leafblower list by the way)
Anyways, part of their fluff is that they are fighting on a marshy/muddy world and I want to be able to model them with alot of thick mud on thier bases and on the tank tracks.
What I want from you is advice on (links to tutorials on the subjects would be great):
Wet mud bases, I was thinking of taking about 1-2mm off the bottom of all my models, then creating a mix out of PVA glue and snow flock, putting that on the bases, then painting it brown with water effects put over the top; but I hope someone has a tried and tested method, as I'm not the hobby genius!
A way of making wet mud on the tanks traps and applying wed mudddish weathering
and just some tips on making some really battle damaged tanks!
Any advice and info would be great thanks,
Dom
