| First things first...wash the Hexon II boards in warm soapy water, ensuring the surface is clean and dry before proceeding to the next stage. |
|
Painting The boards are now ready for the base paint to be applied. The upper surface of the board has a textured finish to allow good paint adhesion. In the example shown we have used a domestic emulsion paint, readily available from DIY stores (Dulux vinyl matt emulsion, colour:30YY23246, Salisbury Stone, for the base coat on land terrain boards) . However, the boards can be painted using a wide variety of paint types which can be applied by spray or brush.(Please follow manufacturers advice and instructions when using these products). Apply the paint evenly to the upper surface and the edges of the board if required. |
|
Flocking Once the paint has dried, they are now
ready for flocking. |
|
Applying the Flocking Material Apply the various flocking materials as required Sprinkle silver sand (available from DIY/model shops) over some leaving some space for green flock to be added later. Tap off the excess sand back into the sand tray. |
| Then sprinkle static flock over remaining areas of the board. Here we have used light green static grass (Noch: 50210). |
| Tap off the excess flock back into the flock tray, and leave to dry. |
| Any residual flock can be brushed off when the board is dry. |
