Grahame's burrow - work in progress


otterine

I sculpted the circular base, cutting out channels for the tree roots and making the outer edge of the circle blend into the surrounding areas. I also cut out the area under one of the upward-curving roots in both the circular base and the initial foam base down to the wood base board. Using the slivers of foam cut from the initial foam pieces that make up the lawn, I built up the area under and around the roots though nothing is glued in place just yet. I covered the hole and added foam pieces to abut the back of the root that defines its opening. So, what's the hole for? Grahame!!! :D

I won't make him live in this tiny, cramped burrow full time, but it sure will be cute to take some photos of him peeking out from under The Tree!

Thanks, Jo! He is a badger, and a fellow miniaturist suggested the name, It's the last name of The Wind in the Willows author, one of my favorite books. Though, Grahame has a softer temperament than the badger in the book. :D
