The first picture above shows the bottom of the base. It is very
well scuplted and my casting was virtually bubble free. The 2nd picture show the
wall in place. I have added the light from an old VP set. The base was painted
with Delta brand acrylics. The Lilacs are sea foam and the grass is silflor.
The cart is scratch built with Tamiya 1/48th scale wheels.

Here is an update on the sunken road. I have found some great figs at Red Lancers I
will post some pics of them when they get here. Here are the progress pics. The gate
is from the VP park wall set. the Lupins in front of the wall are from the craft
store.

I have added more lupins, and a number plate. The numbers come from
Grandt Line, the backing is just sheet stock. I have started to paint the lamp.
It was base coated in gold, and given several washes of burnt umber. I have
also added the stalks for ivy on the wall. I am still waiting on leaves from Plus
Models.

Back to the bench! I have cut down the lupins
a bit, added some dried leaves to the road, added more flowers, and exchanged the lamp for
an other orniment from Pegaso. I have also started to add leaves to the vine.

fit better.) and Lion Roar PE
