I was confused whether this went in this thread or the paint one as it pertains to both.
I used the below technique to make for first ever attempt at anything diorama related. It looks ok for a first go but a couple of points I wanted help on. The edge of the card where the bricks are exposed is very sharp and unrealistic, any tips for making this look like the edge of plaster work. Secondly, and this may help with question one, how do I make the plaster around the exposed brick look real. I was thinking a paste with a fine grain but was unsure how to make this as I am very, very new....like joined last week after a fifteen year break from modelling new. thanks for any help,
