Looks nice. So those are just some rocks and a root right? Then some sand too I'm guessing. You might want some finer sand on the bare spots of the base though if your going for the desolate look.

All done! Just a quick test piece. I'm going to see if the shop wants a set of these for an ash wastes table.

Looks cool. It reminds me of something from a Tim Burton movie, which is not a bad thing.

Thanks for the comments folks!
I'm currently working on a tables worth of these right now for the local gaming shop.
As we get the tables we're working on finished, I'll definitely take some photos and post them here so people can be jealous and travel just to play on them ^_-....
Should have the Ash Wastes table started sometime soon, so expect some photos of these on a table sometime in the near future!

It probably would decompose yeah, though it being dried out should help...
Awesome piece of terrain though

Thanks for the comments folks.
I'm really not too worried about it rotting. They're rather dry from the winter weather/not that much rain, so at worst I expect them to become more brittle.
I finished another 7 templates, bringing the grand total to 8. I brought them up to the local shop last night where the owner was working on painting the table they'll be going on.
They were definitely a fun distraction, and netted me a box of marauders when it was all said and done ^_^.
