I've been on this project for the past 3 months. Started with weaving cardboard strips with a hardboard backing (on the side of the tunnel you can't see). Shaped it with plaster cloth then covered it with sculptomold. For the incline portion that I am now working on I used 1/8" hardboard and bent it to fit the curvature of the incline - then screwed the hardboard into my incline supports. I am now using sculptomold to hold the plaster rock castings I made to the hardboard backing. I used leopard spot painting technique to get the rock coloration the way I wanted it - I was real pleased with the outcome! For those of you that are planning to color rock formations I strongly suggest looking at the Woodland Scenics demonstration on youtube.
I would love to have some suggestions on what else I could do to improve the look of this tunnel project -
Thanx for taking a peek
