hey im building this for the first time based on the beautiful dragons website and i followed lizard landscapes advice https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T_4gCuKRCeU here is what im working on [ximg]97755 2695768648[/ximg]i made a couple mistakes i might remake this after i finish this i used sanded grout which is ok but the non sanded be much better the first coat didnt really bond well the stairs were starting to break i put some toothpicks to reinforced it then once i put the 3rd coat it really bonded well im doing 1 more coat before i use the penetrating sealant so if i had to do it again i would make sure i glue it real well and reinforce with toothpicks on the weak spots such as the steps before i grout certainly the sanded grout gives it a rougher surface but i think the non sanded grout be easier to work with and probably don't need that many coats the materials i used
polystyrene home depot 1 inch 8x4 sheet
loctite powergrab adhesive
aquamix penetrating sealer i had to buy this online amazon
acrylic paint i went to michaels bought a few bottles for 70 cents each i bought the terra cotta color
i bought the shields all waterproof you can only buy that online but i also have mod podge
my lizard likes to poop in the basking area so i will use shields all
for brushes,bowls i went to the dollar store.
and thats all you need very easy to work with foam.
