Something I've never done yet, take a taxi. I've worked on and driven many cabs, even a few Checkers, but I have never paid for a cab ride.

Toyparkny,

I will post some more pictures of it for you. It is a bunch of wadded up paper that was covered with masking tape. Then I used Sculptamold that I bought at my local hobby / train store.

After the Sculptamold was dry I painted on many dark colors(gray, black, browns, red).

After that I simply added a couple light sprinklings of 3 different colors of model railroading grasses.

Then a dded a few small bushes here and there and thats what I ended up with.

Look in the Customizing and Diorama forum for pictures.
