Probably going for tarmac for the surface so should be simple to do.

Bit of base work now with some AK terrains concrete going on the base first followed by tarmac. I've chipped this slightly to show some concrete underneath. just a bit of curbing or barriers to add now.

Cheers mate, more on the base and I've made up some high curbs for the base. Seen these in lots of pictures & also added the cement and a bit of earth which will get covered with sand later.

Been working away at the base with some kerbing done then some groundwork and then some debris. Followed by some painting then pigments for the base and model and that's the project finished! really enjoyed this and will be getting another but will build it as a greek vehicle at some point. More pics in my gallery.
