Nicely done!<BR/><BR/>Couldn't help but think this would also work on the underside of the upper floors, if you were looking for a fallen plaster look on the ceiling. Just make an irregular patch in an area or two, paint it a different color, and there you have it.the other Kevinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03109487639989936564noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7709017307374498723.post-68964900681344753782009-01-09T13:54:00.001-05:002009-01-09T13:54:00.001-05:00This use for wood is absolutely brilliant!

Thanks!<BR/><BR/>Oh, another way to do fast wood slat objects is with textured wallpaper that comes with vertical stripes. Stain brown and some quick work with streaky dark brown for "woodgrain" and you're done!RT Maitreyahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18196862940778095997noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7709017307374498723.post-10356929188773739592009-01-09T13:54:00.000-05:002009-01-09T13:54:00.000-05:00Foamcore is a wonderful material.I've used cereal ...Foamcore is a wonderful material.<BR/><BR/>I've used cereal boxes to make a lot of the texture on my terrain pieces. You can score the soft cardboard easily to give it a wood or tile texture quickly and then cut it to fit the floor it goes on.Space Hulk Enthusiasthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03522498406401972832noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7709017307374498723.post-78205582581841576382009-01-09T13:40:00.000-05:002009-01-09T13:40:00.000-05:00This technique works great for sci-fi applications...This technique works great for sci-fi applications as well-- I've seen this technique for spaceport metal floors.<BR/><BR/>If you want to save time at the cost of detail, try a ball-point pen right on the card instead of stripping it away.<BR/><BR/>But stripping it away gives you all sorts of texture possibilities: take various objects and smash them into the foam for some great dimension to those big, flat floors.Real Ghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06147138909835277505noreply@blogger.com
