Carving some foam

Here is another "how to" article based on one of my entries to the Wyrd Place terrain competition.

Today I will focus in a bit more detail with the carving. I had a vague plan that I wanted to do some form of mine. In the end I settled on the idea of an old mine that had been sealed up due to Neverborn dangers.

Building ruins for Malifaux

So following up from my Terrain Musings post I decided to go with some Badlands themed terrain. i was casting some moulds for a future Victorian themed table. I happen to have quite a few Hirst Arts moulds. I was casting some cobblestone moulds and I still have not got the volumes right so I had spare hydrocal to go around. So I poured the extra into my large Caverns Floor Mould. And then the idea struck...I could mix the floor moulds with some rocks for an outside ruin look.
