How to make the Statue of Liberty ruins.

1) Take off her head
2) Cut a half from the head

3) Make a base (PVC, ball pen)

4) Glue the head to this base

5) Make some papier mache (toilet paper +PVA)

6) Add the papier mache and add some garbage, stones, sprues, barrells, sand... whatever you want

7) Wait 20 hours to dry

Done!

Molding and casting on the next week. Or not

Cheers!
Anastasia.

Had to be said... Nice work, where did the Lady Liberty head come from?

I opened the thread expecting someone to use a cheap souvenir as the base.
Started reading assuming it was the case.
Now you tell me you sculpted the casted the thing? That's quite impressive. Very good job!

I think it would be better suited for a COld war or a ww2 usa Invasion game.

Looks like a great terrain piece, but I'd hesitate to use the word "Liberty" around "Imperium".

If you are not up to plaster casting* a piece like this, you could probably find something somewhere online for a really cheap price. This also works with other pieces too- it doesn't have to be a Statue of Liberty. This is just very iconic and recognizable.

*Assumed this was a plaster casting, and not resin or plastic.
