Swamp scatter terrain
After reading Death Zones by Simon Pasternak I started working on an Ambush Alley scenario set in Belarus during 1943. It soon became apparent that I needed terrain to better represent the swampy regions of the forests that cover the area. I did some YouTube browsing and saw some impressive builds. However, I wanted something simple, that I could make from existing material. Automatically that ruled out using resin to represent water. As an alternative I did think of using a clear plastic to add some gloss but wasn't that convinced with how it would look. The solution came when searching through my archived stash and I found some old gloss Humbrol acrylics. I bought these in the late 1980s to paint a leather jacket and incredibly they're still viable. I opened them all up and mixed a gloopy dark green colour in situ on the plastic card I was going to use. After leaving to dry I was pleased with how glossy it was and how well it...
