sugar cubes. These are really unique. Or maybe you could use erasers or DOLL HEADS. Sorry that was random. I think sugar cubes are unique.

doll heads was pretty random but i actually tried it i hope my teacher likes it

Answer 2

Number one offers suggestions I hadn't thought of, but certainly valid.

The fact that the WALL itself is unique in it's own right is awesome. I have a cannister of soil from the walkway.

Without at all knowing the scale; you could use Thick; white Styrofoam; cut in the general shape; then detail it with a pencil solder gun; Blocks/Towers/ etc. Hopefully you'll add topography to the "diorama" as well. I'll assume you've at least seen pictures, and know it's a SNAKE like structure.

Answer 3

Hello,
In geography class, years ago, we built structures with flour and salt and water. The flour and salt were almost equal parts with moistening to create a paste. The mixture was formed into mountains, volcanoes, forts, etc and when it hardened we painted it.
I hope that helps you.

Answer 4

You can go to your local arts and crafts center and purchase a 1/4 inch by 1/2 " wood stick about 3 ft lengths. Cut out the sections for how long you want your brick sections to be and glue them in place after cutting them out. Then paint a brick color on the wood and presto./

Your wall is built. You can use elmers glue to hold them in place. A wonderful project if you do it right.

Answer 5

kind of dumb but the first thing i thought of was Lego's

Answer 6

u can try foam board and draw on the brick.... if u do use that try cutting it with a sharp exacto knife and u will have to change them once in a while bc the cuts will not be a " clean cut" also u can try spray painting it or faux it so it looks like stone also u can put sand on it or get those paint that have a texture on it ....good luck with it and just remember stuff like this takes time also test it on a sample or sumthing that way if the effect that u were trying isnt what u want u wont mess up on the original one
