Making the base

Starting work on the base. First covering the cork board with aluminium foil, just to be neat...

Finished foiling..

Now I need to cut the cork tiles into the terrain we want for the landscape. The idea is to have a river running through the middle of the scene. So two levels of cork tiles should do it. Some measuring and templating ...

Cork cutting done...

Now cutting the river

Next step is to lay foil before sticking the cork pieces on. The reason for this is to have a nice foil side.

Using a paintbrush to spread the glue out evenly.
