The Book of One-Space Volcano Terrain Tutorial
The Book of Single Hex Volcano Custom Tutorial
-Supplies Needed-- Household aluminum foil
- Sculpey Oven Bake Clay
- An official Heroscape single hex Ice Glacier or a small screw driver
- A conventional or toaster oven for baking
- A cookie tray
- Red acrylic paint
- Gray acrylic paint
- Paint brush
-Tutorial-- Mold your aluminum foil into the shape of an official single hex Ice Glacier; this shape is about 1 1/2 inches wide at its base and 3 inches tall.
- Mold a thin layer of Sculpey over the entire aluminum mold.
- Place the official Heroscape glacier against the side of the model and roll the two together as you press them. This should create a nice pattern across the mold.
or, if you don't have the official Ice Glacier, you could use a small screwdriver to create a similar pattern. Place the flat end of the screw driver on the model near the top and drag down creating small crevices along the sides.
- Stand the model up on your baking sheet and place it in the oven.
- Bake according to the directions.
- Paint the entire surface red.
- Go over the raised and bumpy parts of the model with a gray brush, being sure to leave plenty of red crevices and cracks.
- Your finished product can now be placed on any hex on the battlefield and used as a Volcano.
NOTES:- The official single hex Ice Glacier is the exact same size and shape as the single hex Rock Outcrop.
- The paints used were Apple Barrel paints. They are usually less than a dollar for a bottle at any Wal-Mart or craft store.
