Need to make a battle-torn city for gaming? Learn how to make ruined building, destroyed industrial components, toxic dumps, and other urban items to enhance your next game. We will also cover basic and advanced terrain making such as hills, woods, and water effects. Try your hand at making urban terrain using the items provided. Just bring your imagination, and take home a unique piece of terrain of your own creation.
Making color work on a mini can be a challenge. Learn what makes colors work together; how to choose a color for contrast; how colors can suggest atmosphere or lighting effects; how to pick colors associated with cultures or eras to capture their ‘feel’; and how to break the rules effectively, and use of special-effects paints will be discussed. Everyone will receive a color wheel and a pad of watercolor paper for experimenting.
Reaper's Staff Painter takes you behind the scenes to the pigments that make your paints. Covers the qualities of the pigments themselves that affect things like paint thickness, coverage and depth, transparent color as an asset, which colors cover best and least and how to use them to your advantage, and why it's hard to layer smooth highlights onto deep blue, black or purple. All this and more--and you get to play with actual pigments, too!
