So this is a forgotten altar of some kind with two sections of wall (statue courtesy of D&D Minis).
The altar is a piece of cardboard, coffee can lid dais, wine cork pillars. The brickwork was an idea I had to carve patterns right in to the card and then paint over that; I think I'll really be able to use this technique as I get better at crafting things. This also taught me that working with cork is awesome.
The walls are filled down LEGO bricks. I think this was a good idea, but not time-efficient at all. The bricks are very hard plastic, and filling them down for both walls took the better part of a day. Since then I've found several articles that suggest using large pieces of flock or fish tank rocks glued to a wall of card. This method looks better on the effort and result. Maybe a little moss/vines on the tops will improve them.
I'm still happy with my first new creations. Chris and I are planning to make large 2x2' sections of themed terrain eventually, but till we get that together terrain pieces will get us in to the game.
