In a case of putting the cart before the horse I have painted my Diabolical Terrain Dugout Outrigger Boats for my Brigade Games Tiki Gnomes! I simply hit them with dark brown spray paint, gave them a heavy wash of Agrax Earthshade and then did a couple drybrushes of lighter browns and tans. I picked out the ropes and gave them a wash before picking out all the carvings in bright Tiki style colors. They might not be historical accurate, but for a group of Tiki Gnomes I figure no one will begrudge me this! The bow and stern seats fit the Gnomes flush on the washers I used, the center seats will be slightly wobbly but not noticeable. As always Diabolical Terrain does great work, these are a bunch of fun, and at only $5 each I may need to buy some more so the whole crew can go on an ocean paddle!

I didn’t realize this until I was typing this post but this project also got me the “Paint something using dry brushing” BINGO square!
