An overall shot covering most of the 4' x 9' of the total 4' x 12' playing surface. That is a piece of brown marine vinyl under the pieces.
Some 'blonde' grass on temporarily green painted bases - 16 pieces.
Then the 'tall' green grass, some on finished pieces and some in process with only the sand glued on - 12 total pieces.
The 30 blank pieces that have just been spray painted brown, probably will give a couple or a few colors of fake fur added. Very likely I will add some additional pieces, at least six, so that there are no fewer than 12 pieces for any 'flavor'.
This is the late spring or summer grass, the farthest from the camera finished and the closer ones just with the green spray paint (rushed into service for a game last year, maybe even longer than that), 16 pieces.
This would be the late summer into fall grass, 16 pieces.
This is the 'tall' brown grass, 12 pieces.
Eventually, all of the pieces will be textured like this one with my 8 colors of paint layered on. Blends pretty well with any season (winter is not a season in my gaming world!).
I welcome ideas for elements I can add to increase the diversity of my flavoring pieces. Just remember, this is for use with my collection which is all 15 or 18 mm figures and stops circa 1900 and doesn't really get into ancient times - oldest are Vikings, newest are Boxers, might extend to WWI German East Africa.
