I need either a link to a tutorial or any help in how to make a barrow for a diaroma I want to make as I have managed to buy the fog on the barrow downs set. I know issue 40 of BGIME details making a barrow in their modelling section if anyone who has this can take a pic or let me know what they suggest I would be really grateful

I see this is your first post so welcome.
Your question is difficult to answer. I do not know if you are 10 or 50.

The front entrance details are made from slate. Everything else looks like foam. I would use Hirst Arts blocks for the interior.

This bondo grader is very useful for carving foam. I like drywall filler better than the plaster Joel uses. I would not use white foam. That is why I posted Joel's tools and supply link first.
I hope this information helps. If you are in the UK someone local will help you locate supplys

Thanks Old Man Willow I really really appreciate both the welcome and the info. I am 30 but have only been into miniatures for 3 months so lets assume I have the abilities of a 10 year old. I have made terrain which has turned out really well however I want to attempt a barrow and then weathertop. I really really appreciate those links.
