Inspired by some fantastic mats made by other forumers, I decided to make one on my own. A regular green artificial grass mat 200*100 cm was bought for 7€ (YES!). The gum base seemed to guarantee the mat will lie flat. And it does.
Then some black lines were applied with a permanent marker to outline country roads and fields.
After that, different acrylic paints were sprayed using an airbrush and the no man's land was sprayed over it in the middle. Finally the trench pattern was done.
It's huge. I like it a lot. It took half a day to complete it and I finished it around 3:00 am tonight. You should have seen my wife's face in the morning when she entered the living room!
