After reading a thread on the onthestep forum about the problems facing with Terrain and getting to it and compared to my experiences from my last session I figured out there is more than a need for Dug in Markers. You seem to need them anythere and anytime.
Problem solved....
Here we go:
Need:
- salt dough
- partysticks
- knife
Step 1: Take your medium and small base and model around that salt dough to the high needed
Step 2: Add Partysticks to the sides facing your bases
Step 3: decorate the outskirts (e.g. like small sandbags, other stuff
Step 4: slightly cover with extra wet salt dough your real parts (like the partysticks and decoration)
Step 5: let the stuff dry
Step 6: paint in the colours you like
Advanced (saves time and money):
Step 7: skip part 6 .....instead Glaze your finished product and wait till everything is dry
Step 8: If you are pleased with what you see build a container with lego bricks around it
Step 9: Place your Dug in Marker in the middle and leave a couple of mm space to each side
Step 10: Use liquid latex or double compound silicone to fill up the rest of the container
Step 11: let everything dry
Step 12: get your original out of the mould
Step 13: use resin or similar stuff you are familiar with and cast as many of your dug in markers as required

Hello Jo,
AntwortenLöschenGreat post again! Thought I reply here instead of emailing, as other people might be interested in this as well:
What type of resin do you use for your casting and where do you buy it (in Ireland)?
Have a nice day!
Edwin
Its an Air Oxidising Resin (coloured) made by a german company. You will get similar products here in Ireland.
