The steps below show you how to produce a rocky ash
waste. Keep in mind that between the drybrushing stages, it is helpful
to just keep the colour you currently have on your brush and dip
into the next colour. This helps blend the two colours of paint in
a natural fashion while you drybrush. However, you don't want to
do so if the two colours are radically different. If you have no
clue how to make this texture, visit the basics
section and learn how!

To start things off, heavily drybrush Scorched Brown over
the entire area. This will give the piece an earthy undertone. |
|
Next, heavily drybrush Codex Grey over the area. Pay attention
to the large rock clusters as they will need to show the most
depth and texture due to their size. |
|
Continuing on, use Fortress Grey next. You will begin to see
some results at this point as you drybrush. Again, use a heavy
hand at this stage. |

|
To finish up, use Ghostly Grey to drybrush the surface. If
you wish, a little Skull White can be mixed in with the Ghostly
Grey used to enhance the effect. Focus on the clumps of rocks
for the best results. At this point, you can consider yourself
finished! |
|
As an interesting option, use some sort of static grass. There
are tons of different colours out there, just find one you like
and use it. Applying static grass is a simple matter of spreading
some glue in the desired area and then sprinkling static grass
on the spot. When placed in strategic patches here and there,
the end result makes for realistic terrain. |
