the next thing i do is put down my moss sheet. you can get these at michaels for around $15. theyre quite useful.



youre going to also want to decide if you want the surface flat, or do you want a hillside. whatever its up to you. i chose to do a hillside. to do so just place some objects under the sheet of moss where ever you want there to be a hill or what not.

this is what i use. just some wood from an old dio of mine.

next im going to put some trees in. best pasrt bout these they are free. go cut some branches off a tree and you got scale trees for your joes. screw them at one end to some wood and theyll stand up just fine

next i start putting my trees in place. place them in different spots as i see fit. and use rocks as weights to make sure the trees dont fall over.


once the trees are in place i use some spanish moss i got from the $store to cover up anything i dont want seen or gaps they may need to be filled on the moss sheet.





and turn on ym lighting and this is what i have





anyquestion please feel free to ask. im not the best teacher in the world but ill do my best to help you out
