20 minute garden path

[Doug ex-em4]

I’m hesitant to post on this board - there’s so much skill and expertise on show that’s way above my level. However, I was quite pleased with this little path which only took 20 minutes to do.

The base was a bit of this:

Scrap cork board



Then by adding some of these:

Very useful item recommended by Matakishi




And a handful of these:





We end up with is:


A minor piece of scenery but very quick and easy which are two prerequisites for me

Wonderful Doug!  Consider your ideas duly stolen when the Cornishman’s man cave reopens shortly.  Cheers Roo

Don't hesitate.  Very solid, effective build and techniques.

Looks great and does the job 

[Pattus Magnus]

Yeah, I’ll echo the others, that turned out quite well. I would be pretty happy to have more of my gaming terrain looking like that.

[Doug ex-em4]

Thanks everyone. It really was very easy and quick.

This is what I did it for:

A path leading to a greenhouse which is nurturing some very strange plants.

Roo - are you now living in Cornwall?

I'd be more worried about the sentient lawnmower ... its cut the grass, now its looking for something else to mow...

That’s a scary thought!

Thank you both. I’m thinking maybe I need a patio now

Quite nice, and it gives me some inspiration for a similar project that I have in mind.

[Roo]

Alas not Doug, the Cornishman’s man cave is moving to Hereford.

[Mad Lord Snapcase]

A lovely bit of work, I need something doing like that in 1:1 scale, if you can spare a few days!

[FramFramson]

Seems, almost too simple - you're not leading us down the garden path on this are you?

[Patrice]

Nice work. 

I remember a sentence in a book at school when they were trying to teach us to speak English (to us French native speakers) “there is a thrush in the path“.
