Hello all

Tonight i worked some more on the water portion of the display. i first added all the waves to the parts of the base that meet up to the island. then i removed the island and painted it with several shades of blue and green. when i was happy with the color it started to air brush white caps and a ...

hello all

My daughter loves spooky town pieces, when she sees your setup I know she'll flip. Fantastic job on the display.

I'm curious, when you finished painting the 'rock' a flat gray--what did you do next to get the whitish detail on the creases and peaks, I'm guessing a light sanding...or did you brush ...

did not do to much tonight. i added some more ground work and also detailed this little ledge. I built this mini animal skeleton for what i feel is a nice added touch to this empty cliff.

tomorrow i will have alot more pics to add

hello all

Tonight I installed some of the lighting for the cave. i used a few different spot lights in purple and then i took some clear one and colored the lens orange. i really like to two tone look for the cave.
I also started with the ground cover. adding some ground work and a few shrubs ...

as you can see i have started to add some of the lightings for the house walkway. i wanted all wires to be hidden to i put down the lights and then mudded over them. this of course will be painted a ground color. when the top is done it will be a very lush landscape or grasses and trees. the holes ...

some pics after i started to airbrush the rock look to everything. inside the cave there will be some very cool lighting along with fog like said above that will be produced with a sonic fogger.
everything on the bottom will be water as if the pirate found treasure in the cave and have raided the ...

we made some walls and sidewalks with clay that will be painted and added after the mud goes on. we also started to make lots of trees
