The plants/gras...Hi Josh, thanks for the comments.<br /><br />The plants/grasses etc are all made by Silfor (sold by Scenic Express in the US). There are Late Summer and Autumn tufts of Buffalo grass, simply superglued on, as well as Silfor's excellent Assortment Meadow with flowers (for the flowering tufts). The grass tufts get a light drybrush of Vallejo Pale Sand once they're in place and dry.<br /><br />Hope that helps.<br /><br />Cheers<br />Davedavetaylorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08137502467601937229noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2469017760558244027.post-9183206468132554282013-09-03T10:55:30.239-07:002013-09-03T10:55:30.239-07:00Hi Dave, Your work is artistically beautiful.

Do you do any work to them after they come out of the package, and if so what do you do? <br /><br />Thanks!<br />Josh Joshhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17413007310180896260noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2469017760558244027.post-77427701291055544802013-09-03T07:44:46.444-07:002013-09-03T07:44:46.444-07:00That might be the photos talking, the legs of the ...That might be the photos talking, the legs of the horse also have the same weathering powders used as on the rider's legs. In real life there's a definite difference between the satin look of the horse's coat and the matte, dusty fetlocks.<br /><br />Could there be more? Possibly, it's always a fine line between too little and too much, and I always seem to end up on either side. ; )<br /><br />However, there were a LOT of really good entries in the Historical categories, so I don't feel slighted in the least.<br /><br />Cheers<br />Davedavetaylorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08137502467601937229noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2469017760558244027.post-70660678718371402392013-09-03T04:58:27.682-07:002013-09-03T04:58:27.682-07:00One thing I noticed was the dusting on the trooper...One thing I noticed was the dusting on the troopers lower pants yet the horse's lower extremities are fresh out of the bath.

As for the basing colors, I think I started with VMC Burnt Umber, drybrushed with VMC Beige Brown, drybrushed with GW Rakarth Flesh, then with VMC Pale Sand. The rocks got a few thin spot washes with various Secret Weapon washes.
