How to make a fence or wall stand up?

I use Celluclay for my ground work, so any fences or walls are put into that before it dries. Hopefully you can see what i mean here.

On this one, the fences posts are sunk into the 'ground' with the fence slat stuck to it, just as on the real thing.

I am a bit confused as to what you are planning on using as a base. It sounds like it will be thin and not very strong. What are you useing for ground work.

Like anything else, physical or metaphorical; it all depends o a solid foundation. I use 1/2" plywood for model bases. I've used foam and it's ok too if it's thick enough.

If the base is thick enough and hard, pin the object. If it's foam, add an "L" leg to your pin and secure that to the underside of your base.

You're right on the base being thin. I was planning to put some dirt and debris on it with the fence on the side. Reason being I wanted to make it simple and light but if I have to suck it on the ground then that may not work.

By the way what did you use for the grass?

I'm quite new to this so what is an L leg? Do you have photo samples?

So for my dioramas i use styo foam then. Put a plaster , a soft, Caulking down for my walls and fences
