This cool green texture creates a surface strewn with emeralds and shiny stones. The minerals in the paste glint as you turn the base, depending on where the light falls – an effect that is hard to fake with a brush. It belongs to the Wargame Terrains line, which means a smaller 100 ml pot at a price that suits a wargamer building bases in batches rather than one large diorama.

Add darker greenish ground around it with Plague Ground and moss with Moss Texture. Pour a glossy pool between the stones from Water Gel Swamp Green.
Will varnish hide the glint of the minerals?
Matt varnish dulls it. To keep the sparkle, leave the textured area unvarnished, or varnish only the rim of the base.
How do I clean my tools?
Water, as long as the paste is still wet. Rinse the spatula and the old brush right after use – cured acrylic paste will not come off.
Can the paste be thinned?
Yes, with water or acrylic thinner if you need it to flow better. Thinning costs it some shape retention, so go easy.
