Spent most of yesterday painting the towels to get a consistent finish - the dying having been a bit hit and miss. All the fabric types blend pretty well - next stage is the dry brushing
Getting the roads on was also done - nice contrast with the green.
Amazing how the colors change depending on the light/angle...

Got to be said, I've really enjoyed this series of articles mate.
It's the type of technique for making terrain/scenery that I've always wanted to make but have never had the guts!

Looks great. Did you soak the towel fabric in paint to create a stiff texture for further dry brushing or was the fabric left quite soft and just dry brushed? I got the impression you really painted the fabric.
Chris - the fabric was dyed (could have missed this step) and then glued down with diluted wood glue and tertrion (which could also have been omitted.
Then we painted it all with waterered down emulsion with wood glue in it.
it dried semi stiff - so then we could dry brush the whole lot - 3-4 tones
cheers
