The best place to get rocks is quite literally nearly anywhere. The best place is probably the garden at home, but they are all around us. Just stick it onto the base where it looks best with the model and paint it up.</div> </tD> </tR> </TABLE></div> <DIV ALIGN="LEFT"></DIV> <div> <TABLE BORDER="0" CELLPADDING="2" CELLSPACING="1" WIDTH="295" BORDERCOLORLIGHT="#C0C0C0" BORDERCOLORDARK="#808080" FRAME="BOX" RULES="ALL" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0" BGCOLOR=#FFFFFF > <tR> <tD VALIGN=TOP HEIGHT= 98 WIDTH="289"><div> Long Grass</div> <div> Long Grass can look very effective and can bring a base to life. Get a large brush (that you'd normally use for painting a wall in your house) and clip off a clump of bristles. Get some modelling putty on the base and push the bristles into it. </div> </tD> </tR> </TABLE></div> <bR> <div> <A HREF="id173.htm" TARGET="_top" TITLE="Head and Weapon Swaps"><U><<Previous Section</U></A>  |  <FONT SIZE="2" COLOR="#777777" FACE="Arial" ><U>Next Section>></U></FONT>  |  <A HREF="id76.htm" TARGET="_top" TITLE="Moderate"><U>Back to Moderate</U></A></div> <bR> <div> This not answer your modelling needs? <A HREF="id25.htm" TARGET="_top" TITLE="Contact"><U>click here</U></A> to email us a <A HREF="id25.htm" TARGET="_top" TITLE="Contact"><U>question</U></A>, or <A HREF="id70.htm" TARGET="_top" TITLE="Painting Guide"><U>here</U></A> to try another level of skill.</div> <bR> <div> Is there anything you would like to add or a section/technique you think should be added to the modelling guide? why not send us an <A HREF="id335.htm" TARGET="_top" TITLE="Contributons"><U>email</U></A> about it.
