I have never done it before, but for the first time i went "Wet Painting" and i now will stick to wet painting,it gives you all sorts of weird colours and shades.

Once the wet painting was complete, i allowed to dry and highlight with a mild colour khaki, then a touch dry brush of magnolia

The wet paint colours were paint pots samples from any cheap DIY, these colours are dark brown and a orange.

The dry grass is from a hanging basket for plant, just cut pieces out and pull apart, the fibres are perfect, very cheap and lots of it, will last you years and save you a fortune.

I have seen models of ruin buildings and the iron bars that stick out from broken floor levels, people use cocktail sticks, i wanted the bends and to show them that they took some sort of damage, use paper clips was the answer for me.
