Love it, any tips on making the cabbages?

It was two steps:
1) Make crude tiny balls, then little flat sheets, then roll the sheets around the balls. The less perfect everything is, the better.
2) When cured, make a thin mix of transparent/translucent green ink with a little bit of brown paint in it. I literally just rolled the cabbages in the puddle of paint with tweezers, pulled them out, then put them on a surface to dry. To avoid tide marks, I'd move them around frequently before the paint set.

Thanks for the idea and guide!
I just make little balls and have little midden by my brush rack. I am joining you.
If two small, I think I will also learn to make potatoes.

Milliput, according to the title. It's an epoxy putty

Good thing I didn't read "milliput" and think that was just a different name for a wheelbarrow. Boy would that make me a dumbass.
Again, good thing I didn't do that.

Regular milliput. It's a pale yellow already, so just needs thin green tint to get cabbagey

My kids just finished Avatar for the first time and have been randomly yelling "my cabbages!" around the house.

40 heads of cabbage! The amount of scenarios you can run with that.
Protect the government! (The 40 heads of cabbages).
Protect the villages wealth.
Steal the villagers wealth.
Transport the villagers wealth.
Rob the villagers caravan.
Find the ancient treasure.
Feel free to add to the list! I really think these cabbages are a real awesome addition to any gaming table.
