Micro-Scale Battlefield Mat - Post 1

I decided to give terrain mat making a try in the hopes of having a nice size battlefield for my 3mm micro armies. I read up on the subject and watched some videos then bought the supplies I needed. I bought the canvas cloth at Jo-Ann's, the caulk at Wal-Mart. Everything else I had. I started the project Sunday. Then picked it back up tonight with the layout design and painting. I don't think I will use flocking. I used a plastic bag to rough up the mat and will try to use paints to color and highlight the grass, river and roads.

Spread the canvas, iron if needed and apply the caulk.

Allow to dry overnight.

Draw roads and rivers then start to paint.
