Dishes selfmade

Hi!

I needed for my new diorama dishes. It´s difficult to buy this in 1/72. I wanted to make me this themselves. But how?
Alex Gussev has helped me with his idea and a brief instructions, I have tried to make it

In addition I have used plastic cork and a Dremel.
Image

You drill with a suitable drill a well with a corresponding size in the cork ...
Image
Image

... Then is formed of green stuff a small ball and placed in a depression ...
Image

... With a tool having a straight surface, in this case stem from knifer, the ball is pressed into the depression ...
Image
Image

... Now, press the indentation of the plate with a suitable rod of smaller diameter, here the end of the rubber brush...
Image
Image

... After drying the green stuff can be found in the dishes ...
Image
Image

I think for the first try it is it ever not look bad, right?
Depending on how big you make the wells, we can make appropriate plates or bowls.

Have fun trying!

Alex, thank ou for your help !!! :headbang:

Simple ideas are always the best, and simple things can be the hardest to make.
