Photo showing a homemade model volcano, created for a school project (Geography school project). This small volcano model is pictured against a cloudy blue sky and was created using a base of chicken wire, shaped as a mountain and stapled to a solid wooden base. The miniature volcano was then covered in paper mache / machier, which was painted with a combination of grey paint mixed with soil, sand and gravel, to create a realistic texture. The red lava flow / red magma was made with coloured reindeer moss, most commonly used in modelling for miniature railways.
