Collins Doesn't do Savage Frontier
Testing the groundwork
So to get the soil sorted I went into the garden and dug a hole…
I baked a pot full of it in the oven at 200 degrees centigrade… Fan adjusted of course.
To separate out the different grades I used 3 different sieves, but my wife thinks I only used one ‘hobby sieve’ so lets just keep schtum about that shall we.
I added tile grout to the mixture in a 1:2 grout:soil ratio.
Neat PVA on the base board (cardboard for the test), place stones and bigger gravel then a sprinkle of the soil/grout mix everywhere else. once done it is sprayed with watered down PVA.
It dried rock hard in the airing cupboard but warped. not worried about that, it was expected as cardboard isn’t a good basing material. I’m more interested in the colour it came out.
