One thing I want to do is a lot (50+) of casualty markers, like the Gloranthan ones I made a couple of years ago. I have thought about trying to sculpt these with greenstuff, and cast them in resin; then add bits like shields and so forth. Once I get some more greenstuff, I also want to try to do a dead African elephant...

Hi Greg, thanks for the link; I'd been trying to remember who did the Mammoth.
I'm going to make it from Greenstuff, just in case I decide to get it cast later on (I think Fimo might explode if in a vulcaniser). I also want to make it hollow for weight reasons. I'll want around 10 of them.
Coming along nicely, Simon.
