Thankyou all,the groundcover consists of a couple of pieces of pink foam draped with
tissue and soaked down with whiteglue and water. Plain brown sand from Micheals was used and again soaked with whiteglue and water.Here I used an eyedropper to
apply the glue and in doing so created the windblown ripples in the sand. The outcropping was painted a desert colour and washed in a dark brown,I did not drybrush
afterwards. A rust colour pastel was used to hilite. Two resin skulls were added one of which is evident in the fourth pic,to give the region that forboding effect.
