Final Submission
Here is my final submission. It is a compilation of images and a short video at the end which is supposed to have a time-lapse effect. I did this by filming it whilst holding a fan on it. Because it is in miniature it has a different effect than it would in full scale, making the bushes vibrate very quickly giving it a time-lapse illusion. I then removed the background and replaced it with footage of a time-lapse sky/sun-rise.
Backgrounds
Here are some attempts of editing different backgrounds into the image.
In the end my favourite was this one. I edited in a background of 'The Shire'.
Flowers
I decided to add flowers for some extra detail and to break up some of the green. I did this by mixing saw dust into watery paint and then allowing it to dry. I then added small amounts of glue onto certain areas of the bushes and sprinkled on the coloured saw dust, when the glue dried I brushed off the rest of the saw dust and only the glued bits remained.
Painting
Painted the flagging with a dark undercoat to fill in the cracks and then dry brushed on a few lighter coats to get the correct colour and texture. I also added some bits of grass in some of the cracks for realism.
