Genius, love cheap options like this! Often there's no reason you need to shell out loads on premium basing materials. 90% of the stuff I use I find for free

[@SwordsandBrushes]

Agreed! I do love that part of the hobby where you can be super creative with random things in the house or a bit destined for the trash - then it's hobby gold! :):)

[@galan8115]

It would be nice to know the brand of the paper and the moss :D. Thank you for your content

[@DoomDiveryaha]

Agreed knowing what the moss product is would be amazing

[@dillonskinner8097]

it looks like Dirty Down Moss

[@SwordsandBrushes]

Its Belgravia Seriano Pietra Pewter Wallpaper and for the moss i used two - Dirty Down Moss (place on in patches) Use a damp brush with jagged edges after to shape the moss as you want. Then Soilworks Pigment Moss Green (PVA glue down patches) for a bit of variety :)

[@IDHC_CBSickles]

mind blown by this idea.. you could even cut small pieces of it and use them a pavers just poking up through the dirt

[@SwordsandBrushes]

Totally, I do like using materials like this where it could be used in a number of ways :)

[@notreallydavid]

Such a smart idea. Applause!

[@SwordsandBrushes]

Thanks! I got to try it out on some scenery and roads to see how it goes on a bigger scale :)

[@SnakeBoyTen]

That looks awesome, amazing how well the wallpaper works!

[@SwordsandBrushes]

Its one of my favourite mediums - im glad i got a fair few "samples" from the store when i did haha

[@pineconeduck]

Wallpaper? Brilliant!!!

[@SwordsandBrushes]

haha it's a oldschool method, but i like it :)

[@abelcain4726]

Love it

[@namechange4137]

Awesome base! Awesome lizard!

[@SwordsandBrushes]

Thank you very much! I never knew how fun it would be to paint lizardmen! :)

[@sacroven]

Great tip

[@SwordsandBrushes]

Glad it was helpful! :)

[@albanmahoudeau1779]

FUN AND EASY AZTEC STILE...

[@albanmahoudeau1779]

love it.

[@SwordsandBrushes]

I like to be a smidge creative at times :):)

[@1974Carnage]

What a great idea

[@SwordsandBrushes]

Thank you! 😊

[@tommymurphy6753]

Hmmm might have to get some textured wallpaper for my Minas Tirith army!

[@SwordsandBrushes]

haha yes go for it! I have a nice supply here waiting to be used for some scenery when i get around to it! :)

[@jonathanxen5709]

Very very very pretty painting! As for the bases, it's impossible to find any in stock. I can't find any in France either :'( help ^^^

[@SwordsandBrushes]

Thank you very much! ah thats a shame, maybe there are only a few places in the UK that may have it then. I hope to refresh my website a bit soon and then i'll have a few products on there and see if i can do the wallpaper too :):)

[@jadenhendrickson5285]

Share the wallpaper dang it!😆

[@SwordsandBrushes]

Belgravia Seriano Pietra Pewter Wallpaper, there are a few colours out there :)

[@thornwagner7522]

hello great video. do you have a link for the wallpaper? can't find anything that fits

[@SwordsandBrushes]

Belgravia Seriano Pietra Pewter Wallpaper - There are a number of stores i found on Google - But i also hope to add that as a product on my Website in the near future :)

[@seanclarke8015]

Hiya Chris, where did you get the wallpaper from? :)

[@SwordsandBrushes]

It's called Belgravia Seriano Pietra Pewter Wallpaper - i got some from 'The Range' here in the Uk - but there are more stockists online :)

[@ScottieJ448]

where do you find textured wallpaper like this? i didn't even know it was a thing, but googling around i can't find anything textured like this?

[@SwordsandBrushes]

There are a few websites selling it over here in the UK. I may try and get some more at some point. But i always like browsing shops to see what they have because you never know what samples you could get! :)

[@davidvisser4446]

Where to get such wallpaper?!

[@SwordsandBrushes]

It's called Belgravia Seriano Pietra Pewter Wallpaper :)

[@beneaththehowling]

looks pretty cool butvery fram from aztec, maybe in what everyone see in a hollywood movie, thats not even closer to real aztec enviroment

[@SwordsandBrushes]

Thanks, it's just a take on the generic look that is used for aztec - like the Crstal Maze from back in the day haha

[@ghostparty2062]

Iv looked in so many shops after seeing this and can't find textured wallpaper that looks anything close to that 🙃😂

[@SwordsandBrushes]

Yeh my normal go to places for Wallpaper like this seem to have stopped stocking it, but there are shops online that have it - 'Belgravia Decor Pietra' is the name of it :)

[@ghostparty2062]

@@SwordsandBrushes awsome, I'll check it out thanks.

[@ghostparty2062]

​@SwordsandBrushes I ended up finding some on eBay, and now I have the most badass looking undead army 😆 thanks for the awesome idea

[@arnekrug939]

How did you paint the Saurus?

[@SwordsandBrushes]

For the lizard boy I went down the airbrush method as i wanted to do a colour test for a future Blood Bowl team, the main colours for it were: Army Painter - Air Paint Ocean Depths Air Paint Element Bolt Air Paint Zombie Flesh (To get the basecoat and layers down) Speed Paint Purple Alchemy (AB Around Neck and Stomach) Speed Paint Highlord Blue (AB Scales Shade) Speed Paint Grim Black (AB Shade) For the shading I'll be dipping my toe into Blood bowl soon and will make a variety of videos for the different teams as i buy them :)

[@dartmart9263]

Yes, got a link to the wallpaper? What is the name/number, and the brand?

[@SwordsandBrushes]

Belgravia Seriano Pietra Pewter Wallpaper, it's not on Amazon anymore - but there are a number of stores that sell it :)

[@dartmart9263]

@@SwordsandBrushes Thank you so much! Let the search begin

[@tukertex]

Where to get the moss?

[@SwordsandBrushes]

It's called Dirty Down Moss, and it's a nifty little product to use :) amzn.to/3CPLRy7

[@NukaTetra]

What wallpaper is that

[@SwordsandBrushes]

It's called 'Belgravia Decor Pietra' it's quite a nice one with a decent texture to it. Perfect for this kind of stuff :)

[@verminator2523]

Do you think you could paint a burning/glowing skeleton? I can't find a tutorial anywhere

[@SwordsandBrushes]

Like a magical green/blue glow? Or a skeleton that has been set on fire? :)

[@Icey9108]

Where Can i buy this texturepaper?

[@SwordsandBrushes]

There are a few stores scattered around on a Google search and I will add aim to add it to my shop on the website soon :)

[@JoeHardacre]

Do you treat the wallpaper at all to add a bit of durability?

[@SwordsandBrushes]

You could add some watered down PVA to go on the surface, but i have not found that you need to. I do give all my minis a quick airbrush of some Vallejo Mecha matt varnish anyway to finish them off :)

[@DaLavenderhillMob]

The only reason for textured wallpaper

[@SwordsandBrushes]

this is the way

[@Cauliflower4life]

Bro who has miniature bricks on there wall😭

[@MIlesZ400]

Hey, is this model a 3d print? Would love to use these as saurus guard

[@SwordsandBrushes]

Not a 3D print, but it's from the Blood Bowl range :) I managed to get a single member from eBay - they would be perfect for Saurus Guard! :)
