For the outside I wanted a dead, eerie looking tree just by the door of the shed. I felt it would help build fear and therefore question why Archie would be so curious but like a few fairy tales I feel the character's are too curious for their own good and it normally comes back to get them.
Making the tree i used about 15 strands of aluminium wire (all equal length) and using a cordless drill to coil the wire and seperated the ends for the branches. Then i applied Wood filler to give it that bark look. Below are the pictures.
For the rest of the outside I had to make a old looking fence which I did using balsa wood, For the grass I used a static grass mat. For the area around the shed I experimented with a mixture of things including sand, soil and the inside of a tea bag. I painted the shed and scratched and basically attacked it to make it look old.
The Fence in place
With the tree also
The pictures are not the best to see but I gave the fence and shed a slight purple tint because I wanted to show how the monster bleeds into this real world to lure in his victims, he watches the real world and is not just a hungry stupid monster. I wanted him to come across as more intelligent than that.
Below shows the background for the outside scene, i did this with my girlfriend Danielle which i just kept simple with dark clouds, dark blue sky and the back fence and trees for a night time scene
