Fire and Smoke

he following pictures show my first attemps in building terrain pieces representing fire and smoke.




I scaled them for my 28 mm Miniatures. They can be used with nearly everything I collected and painted the past years, Warhammer Fantasy, Mortheim, WW II and Dark Future. The miniature  for scale comparison is a Late War German from Artizan (28 mm).

The used materials:

	cotton woll for filters (floss) - for the smoke
	heavy washers in different sizes - as base for the pieces
	hot glue - fast and easy method to glue the floss to the washers
	black spray primer (Chaos blackfrom GW) - for coloring the smoke
	Acrylic modelling paste (Plastik A from Lascaux) - to do the fire
	acrylic paints in red yellow and white - to paint the fire

Tip: Don't spry the floss to dark. When the paint is dry spread the cotton at the top and on the sides out to get a more transparent look. After spraying is the inner material of the floss paler than the outer and this adds in my eyes much to the realism.

This photo shows the different pieces and the (older) Model of a selfmade ruined building to create the following pictures of the burning building.
