The scene from the movies pops into my head when you mention that. Now, who does an Elle MacPherson figure? 

Elle MacPherson ........yes exactly ! that's the go wolfie, there's a gap in the market for an Elle if there isn't one already.....now surely. ( not that I would dream of telling how to run your loch ol bean )

Well if anyone can pull it off, you can.
Looking forward to seeing the end product 

Lets hope so mate,I have rather indulged myself...

When finished, these will slot into the back of scene; give it a bit depth and mystery to the terrain piece as an whole;


   

[Engel]

Ohh shiny. Another nice picture.
But as stated previusly, it belong in a museum...

Quick question, do you choose the rocks you use specifically, picking out the ones that look like scale rocks or is it more random than that?

cheers

Hello Jim,

That's a bloody good question. I'm going to sound like a tosser ,I pick them by eye; after

doing an bit of picture research on stone circles (I have a few field guides on the subject), I select my rocks. Slate has a nice scale appearance and I'm happy to use my Dremel,luckily the rocks I chose seem to fit,so no messy rock carving to be done; I also try not to pose the rocks in a too symmetrical fashion,as I mentioned it's all in the eye Oh and a lot of planning in my head

Cheers

Good answer mate (and sort of the one I was hoping for) 

Works a treat

What's your preferred method for gluing stone?

[Blackwolf]

White glue,most stone is porous or has enough edges, et cetera for it to have an strong firm  hold and you can of course mix water based paint into it

 And in the background;

 


 

 A bit subtle I admit,though they do add to the depth.

 Do you think it is green/lush enough?

 Off to make more trees

[Poiter50]

She's lush and yes, it is green enough.   

[Christian]

Guy, this is really gorgeous work.

I love the mood, but I think the photos are a touch dark/flat. Maybe a degree of longer exposure, or some more contrast in the final pics would set it off I reckon. Beuatiful job, anyway

[Blackwolf]

  Yeh the finished pics will be much brighter,these are just 'test' shots.There is still much to do and I don't want to show all my cards.

[Prof.Witchheimer]

Ooohh  I think it's just great as it is, dark and atmospheric..

Piece of art, definitely.
