Work on the dolmen progressed this week, actually helped by the sweltering heat plaguing NW Ohio for the past two weeks. Paint dried quickly, glue set in record time, flock stuck first go. Marvelous!
First off, after the black undercoat had dried I painted the stones successively lighter shades of grey then applied a layer of vinyl adhesive followed up with flock.
Once the flock was stuck firmly I dripped green ink onto it using an eye-dropper, following up by wet brushing it in successively lighter shades of green. The stones also got some green ink treatment in areas which, in real life would be shaded by the rocks to represent moss.
So here it is, the Dolmen is complete and ready to take its place on the wargames table.

Perhaps appealing the ancestors would help rid the land of the Saxon invaders? |

A great addition to the wargaming table.
Nice work....you can never have too much terrain 👍
Thanks, gentlemen! I do like having enough terrain for the tabletop.
Great stuff, a unusual addition for a table, I think I will copy it for mine, bravo!
Cheers
