By Joy Schoenberger on January 29, 2012

The base looked a little too plain, so I gave it an Autumn touch with a small tree branch from my yard, and some scenic touches. I darklined the border between the wooden block and the sculpted rock, but I think I overdid it. I’ll have to go over it with gray to lighten it […]
