Thanks Nikki. I had lots of fun (and some frustration) trying to create this! I went to a fun workshop led by David Gilliver last year and came away with a few tips. I use HO gauge figures - my preferences is the Preiser brand as they are more detailed than others. Tiny bits of white ‘Blu Tack’ hold them in place. Tweezers! There were quite a few climbing accidents but they survived well enough to be replaced!

Awesome idea! That tinfoil peak in the distance almost looks like the Matterhorn.
