Over the weekend I could do a bit more work on my river tiles. Next step was painting the gravel and rocks in a basecoat brown ( I use Schminke acrylics for all my terrain painting).

Then I applied a wash of Van Dyk brown ( Schminke) . I made the wash myself , following the instructions found on this video by the terrain tutor.

So you get something like this:

Then I did a dry brush with the basecoat color:

After that I did a wet brush ( basically a heavy dry brush with more paint on the brush then with a dry brush) followed by a dry brushed highlight on the rocks:

This is the result up to now . Next step will be the water then flocking and gloss varnish for the water. Will be back when the next steps are done.
