Flying Hellfish WWII Ardennes Playset
For the playset for my WWII Simpsons figures, I chose the snow covered ruins featured in the flashback.
I cut the base and walls from 1/2" MDF to match the dimensions of the other World of Springfield line. The broken bricks were roughed in using the Dremel.
I scribed in the brick pattern using the Dremel with the router attachment.
The snow on the walls was formed by applying Aves epoxy putty over plastic wrap (so it won't stick to the MDF)
The snow on the ground was made with a coat of Sculpey. I placed the three figures on the sculpey to mark the positions of the foot holes. Once baked, I Dremeled out the foot holes so that they would look like they were standing in thick snow. And so they wouldn't fall over all the time!
The final painted set with the figures in place.
