In this short video I'll show you how to easily create lichens on wooden surfaces like tree-bark, any wooden panels (like on a bridge) or even rocks. Small details like this will move you a step further for a more realistic base.
But before I am going to show you how to do this we need some pictures for reference:
...followed by 2 painted bases with lichens on them:
It's rather easy to paint those. Here's a short instruction, followed by a video to get a better feeling for that.
Step 1: painting the surface (rocks, trees, wooden surface)
Step 2: Mix paint with a lot(!) of water. Dilute the paint more then the mixtures you're using for creating a smooth blending. Add a blob of this mixture to the surface.
Step 3: Immidiately afterwards use a dry brush and soak up the blob. What remains is our result.
Happy testing!

An easy good locking effect :-)
