[quote]QUOTE: Originally posted by grandpopswalt Cappy, Our friend OLD DAD, who no longer visits our forum, Has done just exactly what you're talking about. He shapes his mountains out of a wire screen (hardware cloth) armature. He then covers it with several layers of mortor. He then applies the last mortor layer and "sculps" the rock detail into the still wet mortor. And last, he colors the mountains with a cement dye. The results are realistic and beautiful. You may recall that he's in MN where the temperture swings from a summer high in the 100's to winter lows down to -30. Despite the climate, his cement "mountains" have survived many years. Walt [/quote] That sounds very interesting, I may try some of that. Now that you mention it, I miss OLDDAD. Capt Carrales
