Hey Danial.. if you could kindly tell me what you used for the walls and the vegetation? It looks kind of like those "Toy Farm Set" that we get last time from those shops under the block..

Not in powder form, that might be too messy.
Mine is those thick sticky type. I intend to use a spoon to scoop it up and spread it around.
