Yakult Terrain (Part I)

Recent weeks have been all about work with very little time for play - be that with my kids, friends or even hobby time... life's just like that sometimes.  The other weekend to give myself a break I raided our recycling bin and discovered my wife has been pumping the kids full of probiotics in the form of Yakult - a kind of yogurt that's meant to be extra good for your stomach's health.  Well, they're kind of small and semi-rigid, so I thought I'd see if I could smash out some scatter-style* terrain items.


*Scatter Terrain are things that don't dominate the battlefield and are typically used to break line of sight - they typically compliment other larger terrain items like buildings.

There's nothing particularly notable about the build - I just used various items I had in my giant terrain bits box, including some old kids toys and poker chips.  Standard superglue is holding it all together and I used my airbrush to do most of the painting, including some stencils using an old kid's stencil kit/sheet. Some metallic dry brushing followed by a cheap matte varnish and we're done.
