Starting out my new project, inspired by some of woodlandscenic ' s tutorial videos.
Beginning with some basic materials such as styrofoam boards, newspapers and tape, I cut out the basic shape on the styrofoam that I wanted; a downslope of a hill. Next, I crushed some newspapers and put them between the styrofoam. Of course, I regularly tape it to ensure that it doesn't burst out and ruin everything later on due to the added weight and materials.
I used paper mache as my first layer of the slope followed by two layers of plaster cloth. Spreading out the plaster on the cloth is essential to remove the cloth pattern.
Next, I used the woodlandscenics mold for rock faces and plaster to cast a few blocks. I've reused some "rocks" from a previously failed project to lessen my trouble.
