starting to get the base made for the new Japanese and Marine sets Masterbox has just released. the base started life as the base for the Warriors strecther bearer set. i then cut a hole(foxhole) into it . Made sandbags from paper clay it air dries no baking. then i added tea from a tea bag for some groundwork. and finally i made palm leaves fron a brown paper sack . cut them into squares then glue them together with a piece of wire in them(for the steem.once dry i cut them to shape and glued the outside. after that i painted them. will have pictures soon. hope you all enjoy comments welcome(even if to give me a tip or anything).
Rick.

It looks pretty good so far. The ground debris brings it to life.
Keep posting....
