So before I put Sophie there I think Yotsubato would be the main attraction these entries.
So here it is, I put a big piece of cardboard as background so that my paint rack won't confuse everyone.
To add more texture to the rocks I used a carving knife to chip away the smoother and rounder surfaces of the balls of clays, so it looks less like rabbit poo ;). The 'mud' dried out very nicely, I guess by accident I found a way to more evenly and randomly apply sand to an area.
The mixture was a white + light blue + brown. I air brushed the whole structure trying to show the different layers of the base and giving it more dramatic lighting. I guess I might need to do more air brushing with the structure, but I guess I'd do some weathering first. Also I need to do quite a bit of base coating to cover up places where it used to stick to the plastic frame.

Here's a shot of the back of the structure. Next up, the ferret.

I first air brushed the recess and gaps and holes and cracks between the balls of clay with dark blue. I did the same for the edge so that it looks more like an edge and it helps with directing focus to the middle of the setting. I haven't done a great job with the mix for the highlights but as it turns out, the mix was just right for the structure.
