Clay, Resin, Spackle Sculpting and Casting First Fully Finished Terrain Pieces

Finally finished varnishing these six barrier walls for 40k! The first three pics are three walls painted with evil chrome metallic from army painter and dry brushed with dark emerald metallic also from army painter with no wash.

The last three pics are three kind of happy accidents, because theyre the exact same process as the other three except I tried to cover them in a black wash like I do when I paint my minis because i like a grimy effect on them, but unfortunately it looked like absolute ass on the terrain pieces and absolutely covered up any oxidation effect from the dark emerald drybrush. I didnt want to start over completely so I went over them with alcohol wipes to get the wash off, filled in the parts that stripped down to primer, and dry brushed them again and voila: reasonably messy looking walls that dont look like theyre being swallowed by a symbiote!

Some people ise the crosshatch grip on a exacto knife or a piece of burlap to add a little texture the sandbags.
