Casting a stone wall.

[ocalicreek]

Yes, there are so many varieties of 'stone walls' out there...how about a pic or two?

If you're going for round stones, then here's a thing to try:

Buy stones from a pet store (often graded & sized well) appropriate to your wall.

Cut a strip of card stock the height of your wall minus the size of the average stone.

Glue stiff wire to the ends of the cardstock (vertical) and a few points in between to serve as mounting pins.

Glue tiny rocks in place until you see them in your sleep - first one side, let dry, then the other.

Be sure to reserve nice stones for the cap to hide the card stock.

Paint the wall a basic stone color appropriate for your layout's geography, then wash with a dark wash and highlight with dry brush a shade or two lighter than your base color.

Plant the wall and blend into the ground with turf.
