Sawdust

How to use sawdust to base terrain

 

First off, get the terrain parts you want attached to the blank base, attached. For our purposes, this is 1/4 scrap plywood.
Next, brush on a 50/50 mix of water and glue. I use carpenter's glue, but white glue (PVA) works just as well.
Once fully coated with glue, get ready to apply sawdust. In the background you can see my mix, it's very rough sized, and perfect for my ash waste terrain. Finer sawdust works well as grass.
I just sprinkle it on, and than shake off the excess.
Here it is after one coat. After this is dry, I apply a second coat of glue/water, and sprinkle on more sawdust.
And how it looks after the second coat of sawdust and the last final coat of glue/water.

Primed and ready for painting!

 

I hope you find this usefull. - Scarpia
