Scratch built alittle shed, tried to make look old and dusty. Started with drawing on some graph paper then cut and glued the frame together, had fun doing each board drawing lines and cutting out pieces to make look rotten and falling apart. Casted a base out of plaster and carved with a needle and used some rusty corrugated metal for the roof.
 
Excellent work!
What type of plaster did you use? My attempts tend to crackup when I try to crave it.

Me too! It's really tedious. :confused:

I start with wood and then paint it to look like rock or stone for foundations. Balsa wood works fairly well.
