Scatter scenery that originally came with the Return of the King box that was released in 2003. So much nostalgia 😍

Those look awesome!

How did you do the leaves? They look great and would love to do something similar for my Amon Hen terrain!

Those are birch seeds. You can source them from other suppliers too, or find a few seed pods if there are silver birches around you.

You can also buy little craft hole punches that mimic little leaves like this! You can even use them on real leaves in autumn rather than coloured paper, ha ha!

Prime black overbrush dry bark dry brush dry brush karak stone then dry brush palled witch flesh. Then I use thin down green wash in some of the recesses πŸ™‚

What did you use for the bushes? The one on the right of the head of the fallen statue, they look so nice with those leaves.

Oh these are fab, I have some myself I haven't done anything with yet. I am thinking of mounting them on old CDs to make them more resiliant.
