How To: Make a sandbag wall
Posted by Unknown on Sunday, February 09, 2014 with No comments
I had many inquiries regarding the method I use to build sandbag walls. So I decided to make a brief tutorial about the subject.
The method used is not a sophisticated one and I cannot claim originality or copyright.
Material used
Paints, ordered by use (Personally I use Vallejo)
1. Pickup some of the clay and work it with your fingers to get warm and soften up.
2. Make a sausage a couple of millimeters thinner than the size you want to achieve.
3. Use the textured cloth to roll the clay so the texture transfers to the clay.
4. Flatten the clay with your fingers.
5. While still covered use a slashing tool to cut partly equal sized pieces .
6. Use the same tool and press gently to the side of each bag to make the sewing line.
7. Handle each piece and build your wall (gloves are useful in this step)
8. Let it dry (or cook it) according to instructions

Material used
- FIMO clay (I suppose that it works with any type of modeling clay but I use this brand)
- Piece of textured cloth (personal taste goes here)
- Piece of gloves (optional but useful)
Paints, ordered by use (Personally I use Vallejo)
- Black (for basecoat)
- Brown (heavy drybrush)
- Yellow (light drybrush)
- Brown wash (oil/acrylic) apply freely all over the model
- Highlight with light brown or even white
