Thanks everyone for the comments - as there is some interest I'll post a step by step for the next board which should answer your questions.

Also I just realized that the ferns have individual leaves  :o o_o :o

I thought they were aquarium plants. Did you find some that come like that? If so, what's the source? If not what did you do to get that effect... don't tell me you cut them all by hand?!

The brown leaves look great. Some of the fern clumps look like the tops of palm trees. Great piece of terrain.

If I ever make a pirate island, this will be the first thread I come back to for inspiration! If I could make mine half as good as yours, I'd be proud!!

Very cool build.  I think you have nailed the undergrowth.  You just need some crabs.

Absolutely superb!  :o

That's a Far Cry from anything I could produce. This project leaves me a bit Lost. I think I need to go and sit on The Beach for a bit.

Wow, that's simply stunning...one of the best boards I've ever seen. I really, really, really want to see a tutorial on how it was built (especially the trees and water).
