Is there any interest (need) for an artikel about terainmaking and stonemaking?

[DELTADOG]

Hi folks
Short question!
After the lot of good feedback about my treetutorial I want to ask if you want more terainartikel in the next weeks?
I`ve got a lot of stuff and ideas.
The use of this thread is to clarify wich main focuses you wish.e.a stonemaking, basing, water;waterfall,river etc.
thanks for reply DELTADOG ???

stones and rocks would be nice
and maybe something about composition: how to create a realistic looking transition from grass to dust and rocks for example

the more articles the better!

 

[supervike]

yes please!

I enjoy \'terrain making\' as much as I do mini-painting.

It would be great to get some pointers and a different perspective of things.

Go for it!

I think this would be an excellent idea. Some of the problems I\'ve had with terrain include:

-Making stones and rocks (what materials to use, etc...)
-Basing the terrain (how much base to use, materials)
-Getting the texture on the base (Sand, how to make textured paint, how to keep the sand on there, etc...)
-Corvus\' suggestion about the transitions is good too.

Obviously, you don\'t need to include all of the above, but those are some topics I\'d like to see.

That would defenitly be a good idea. I love making terrains but usually never succed at making them look good. One of the biggest problem I have is when I try putting stattic grass over a large area. It always comes out looking has if a couple a goats at been set free on it and eaten all the grass.

i also love terrain making and would be interested in any ideas you have for waterfalls and other water features. i do not have access to proper gel that some terrain builders use and don\'t have the patience to build up loads of layers of pva/gloss varnish so any ideas will be welcomed

Finn17 you don`t discourage me in any way. I know the site it has got some great ideas but also a lot of rubish iside the good ideas.I don`t plan to start a challenge who make the better terrainartikel I only plan to post an extract of my years of terrainbuilding. I have for nearly every problem developed different solutions especially with materials not everyone use.
out of the replies posted yet, I´ve make a first choice.The artikel will include most aspects of rock and stonemaking and texturing those one. I only have to organize the digicam and put all of this in html.
Stay tuned with posting replies I´ll see what I can do.
