I ge5 the blame for everything! Lol
Second, rocks (always useful & suite various scales)first three pictures are from a tub of stones that I have beenmeaning to use for... well a looooong time. The last two areplastic & from that child's playset.
A lot of the cheap plastic rocks tend to paint up extremely well, I've done several myself where they tend to not require that much work.
Yes, but problems with the plastic ones are:-removing mould lines,If you have a cluster(what is the collective noun for rocks?) they are all the same,They may very well flex & then paint flakes off,As they are light they may move on the table.I find ones from the garden are all individual, heavier & even cheaper.
Only mould lines on the ones that I've worked with are around the edges where they'd be against the base for the terrain.
That's fortunate, I presume jelly type moulding. The two I did had the cast line right across the top!?!Took a steady hand & a sharp knife to remove. I don't have that problem with real rocks. My troubletends to be looking in the garden for the 'interestingly shaped' stones. On a nice warm day I can beout there for hours. The wife thinks I'm clearing weeds.
