I don't unfortunately. It went something like this:
The cliffs are made from layered tree bark which I find to be an amazing cliff analogue for 1/350. I glue those down onto my wooden base. I then poured thick plaster of paris in a sloping mound for the beach. When that was dry, I made my sea out of sawdust and CA glue like I describe in my water article. The texture was blended up into the plaster as a transition. I then painted everything white to seal it in and then painted it with acrylic colours. The colour blend from the sea to the beach is just a paint blend rather than some kind of epoxy thing. Waves=cotton batting Birds=cut out from paper and mounted with black sprue to the cliff ....I think that's about it.
The big rock in the water is a hunk of gnarly wood. It's amazing how rock-like wood can look at 1/350.
