Ive made a small custom terrain piece. This first one was more or less a try-out, to see how things worked, the flocking looks okay, but its actually not good at all, i keep getting pretty large gaps in the flocking even tho i have more or less done nothing with the custom yet. Still, cant learn unless you try. As always comments are highly apreciated.

I like the well. What did you make the bricks out of?

I like it as well. I think I'm gonna try to make something of my own soon...

I too also like it, but I would suggest adding some "mortar" between the bricks next time.

Just a suggestion... painting them (the bricks)?

I think mortar or painting would look fine, but with the plain white bricks it looks to me like it's Jandar's Wellspring. <shrug>

I got the stones from an online shop in the netherlands, you can check it out here (http://www.hobby-en-modelbouw.nl/). Click on "Domus Kits".
I didnt have anything like mortar, could probably do that with some glue and grey paint, ill have to try it when i get some time to make something else.

I really like the well. I've always thought about the idea of making a well, but seeing as how I have no artistic ability whatsoever I never tried to make a well. I agree though, you should put something like mortar between the bricks. :lol:

There's a lot to be said for simple elegance. Nice work, here. :nether:

I like the look of this piece. One thing I've seen done to simulate water is to take some white glue and poor some where you want the water, mixing in a small amount of blue paint beforehand. The glue dries clear, other than the blue from the paint.

The water in the well is actually a water hex, i used a hole drill on (dunno if that english, basicly a drill for making large round holes in stuff) ;)
