Preparations for war! (Hedge building...)

I finsihed off my 2 units of wood elves. So the army has grown by another 60 troops. Plans are underway to host a wargame and actually play some warhammer after 20 years! I'm like an excited child in a sweet shop. So I have a table ( which I'm still not happy with!) but now I need some more terrain. Therefore I'm experimenting with building hedges...

But the clay I'm using as the base will take 4 days to dry and I'm not confident it will stick to the spatula underneath.

Next up some houses for a small farmstead, and a few trees. Probably not enough for a wood elf army!

I thought I'd also better invest in some movement trays, so they are on the go as well!

Wargames Table. Nothing in this hobby is easy...

I've flocked my table. I'm not 100% sure about it. It still seems a bit bare and patchy in places. Im wondering if there is a way to spray white glue in small areas and add more flock. I tried it with a paintbrush but the flock seemed to just clump in those areas...

I've got a few houses and trees but probably not enough for the table which is 6.5ft by 5ft. Anyway  job done for the moment...

Studded leather! Sounds good but it's a bloody nightmare...

Too many of these wood elf sculpts have studded leather. All those tiny rivets I've painted have sent me blind. I still need to tidy them up a bit but that won't be trivial. What's the worst thing you hate to paint?

Tomorrow I'm hoping to flock my table with static grass...

Slow progress on these next 2 units of wood elves. I'm thinking I need a change of subject...
