Geez Wayne, looking at your finished scenes is making me guilty. I really got to get my lazy butt in gear!
The plaster shell is in place on my layout and it looks good so far. I need to fill in some smaller areas towards the top of the grade leading down to the shore line, but think I've figured out how to over come that obstacle, so I'll tackle that tonight. Otherwise I think it is looking good. I've never done this before so I also think that I might be suffering from a mild form of stage fright as well... :oops: I picked up a "dirt" colored latex paint as suggested as well, so perhaps after I've filled in the small gaps I'll give it a shot of paint as recommended and then step back and have a look. I also wanted to get in a couple of small rock faces along the shore line so I'll be experimenting with some Hydrocal to make some rock formations.
No pictures as of yet. But when I have some significant progress to show, I'll get some up.
