I know there is a lot available out there. I'm trying to go on the cheap. Since this is kinda replacing building kits, I don't want to spend alot. *NM*

I need some honest opinions. PIC I want to build a scene of a mountian road so I can take some pics of my models. This is about a 2 hour experiment of just using plaster of paris and getting a feel for making rocks. Opinions.
Looks good to me. *NM*
Thanks! I look at in and think it's great and the next second l feel it doesn't look like rocks at all. But overall l am happy with it. *NM*
Wow! That looks great to me Terry. *NM*
Thanks! *NM*
Nice start. Add a little plant life, and BAM! Looks good. *NM*
As this is just an experiment, I may not do anymore to it. If I do, I will add a road and some vegetation. *NM*
The coloring is perfect. Bet it looks even better outside in the sun. *NM*
I haven't done that yet. Give me a minute. Cool. *NM*
What are the dimensions? I think it is going to be difficult to get the feel of it being a road in a mountain area.
I haven't measured it but a Hot Wheels car looks perfect scale. *NM*
Cool concept! Back in the 70's Peterbilt Motors Co used a setting similar to this.
This was just an experiment. I'd never used plaster of paris and l wanted to try my hand at scribing it to look like rocks. My plans are to go much larger. *NM*
Some model railroad company makes rock molds for plaster. *NM*
You can get "rubble" for model armor diorama, which is also cast plaster...

Well, you can always use real rocks to be on the super cheap. Ducks behind couch. *NM*
I've seen those. I haven't researched them. Do they have them in 1/24. Well, I guess is a rock is any scale you want them to be. Ok, off to hobby town. *NM*
