Thanks, Lindsay!
As for the white ... do you know how hard it is to stain porcelain? Wait,
forget I even asked that (*shudder*).
And what, dare I ask, is a ... "klo"? I feel like I may kick myself for not
picking up on this when I hear the answer, but I've been scratching my head for
a bit.
I built this before I had a Yoda sculpture set, and I really struggled to pull
together enough tan pieces to make it come out the way I wanted. In
retrospect, though, I have to say that it might have incidentally helped the
effect - the random slopes and such interspersed in the walls gave it a nice
"missing chunks" look.
Thanks again ...
