That was an awfully big Marine
More work on the base
Having broke the base down, it was time to build it up again. The plan was to show the marine landing on some concrete, breaking it up.
I grabbed some 5mm (ish) cork and broke off a biscuit about the size of the base. I made a hole for the marine’s foot. And then …
Then I just broke up the cork and glued it on to the base fairly at random.
The chunks of cork were just super glued on, with contact points of varying quality. I packed some Milliput into the gaps to give the whole thing a bit of strength. Although I doubt I’ll ever play with this miniature I always have an eye on making things strong enough.
The brown stuff is fine model railway ballast. It’s there to add a bit of texture to the concrete chunks – and particularly to the gaps in between.
