Thanks guys. Sal, the reason why the numbers look like they could use a touch up is because I attempted to make the numbers look "worn" or like the paint chipped off. This was because the decal didn't set at all and it was so easy to tell taht there was a film there. So, I chipped at it. Haha. I'm glad you noticed though. And Milvehfan, the groundwork is that dried up moss one can buy at a florists shop or a place like Micheal's (are there Micheal's on the east coast?) What I did is I took a clump put it between both my palms, and rubbed them together to "grind" down the moss. I was very happy with the results it gives for groundwork. Enjoy, and thank you.

Oh I forgot, for the mud I used Woodland Scenics Realistic Water mixed with dirt from my own backyard. I just kept adding each ingredient until I got the amount/consitency I desired. The dead trees are from my local hobbyshop and the smal shrubs are part of a "realistic foliage" kit from my hobby shop as well.
