How did you form the rocks on the base?
thanks guys! the rocks were cast from Woodland Scenics rubber rock molds. These can be found in the model railroad section of your LHS. They are rubber molds of real rocks, all you have to do is toss in some plaster, let harden, and pull out. I casts several of them then found the portions that fit the figures, then cut up the castings to fit the base. I filled in the resulting cracks with more plaster (mixed a little thick), and once all that dried I carved the area where i filled to match the surrounding castings.
Rest of the ground work is just some peices of Noch grass mat, soil, celluclay, and bits of crushed plaster (from the above process) for extra talus and rocks.
