I made some of the iconic sci-fi cacti. I had overthought this project for too long, but they were quick to make and paint and I'd love more.
Construction:
- MDF coasters, 60 & 90mm, with bevelled edges
- polystyrene balls of varying sizes held together with glue and cocktail sticks
- cocktail stick spikes
- Vallejo rough grey pumice paste
Painting:
- Spray Vallejo Desert yellow
- SpeedPaint Shamrock Green, drybrush Daemonic Yellow
- Spikes SpeedPaint Blood Red, Vallejo Vermilion.
The extra highlights really brought these up a notch and I'm glad I did them.
