Hi Scottie, I've only a small bag of superlatives to express and need to be very selective as you're churning out too many surprises. Watching every page and enjoying it silently hand in bag waiting for the finale. I see the composition growing...it's already alive without the figures...so what are you gonna surprise us with next?

Cheers,
Richard

Richard you are to kind mate. I hope I can keep it up I am enjoying the build which helps.

hi Scottie
Like Richard I'm enjoying seeing what you come up with next.
Jim

Jim, Glad your looking in mate.

Paul, that makes sense as that would be readily available everywhere.

Secured the building in place and started adding the greenery. I'm having fun with this. I have some PE plants that I might have a play.
Sorry but a few bad pictures to follow.















comments good and bad and pointers very welcome.

Oh come on mate - that kind of detail is more than the film industry can manage - even stones on top of the tarpaulin. How do you do it?

 

[Deleted member 7181]

That greenery really adds to the overall look, and I agree with Peter, the level of detail is staggering.

Can I ask how you made the tarp?

Peter, Thanks mate I wish I could get that close but really glad you like it.

Andy, thanks mate appreciate it. the tarp is easy to make. I use duro which is a two piece putty. Mix it thoroughly then roll out thinly on a flat surface covered in talc to stop it sticking then cut to shape. leave for a while to start setting up then drape over the object and form the creases.

Brilliant, thanks. I've seen something similar made out of milliput, just checking yours was along similar lines as it looks great.

On the other hand, besides the five fingers, this is without a doubt, one of your finest works to date Paul. Keep going as it's amazing!!!!!

Hi Scottie
That is so realistic it's freaky. Incredible attention to detail. Superb. Only criticism is that the spider hanging from the axe handle only has seven legs!!!

Simon, they are a mix of things horse hair covered with mixed flock for the hedges by the wall, grass tufts from various manufactures and natural roots covered in flock for the climber on the out house.

Nice gardening mate ^^

Cheers

Wouter, thanks mate.
