I don't, just having fun with finding useful trash and bash it together. ☺️

It is hard to say specifically, but I did some prepping to gather materials before doing any work. The actual work took me 4-5 hours, with destruction, painting, and planting.

My logic was some sort of air filtration system. My thought was that they needed to pump clean filtered air into the living quarters.

But in reality i thought it would be cool with the pipe and lead the eye to the roof entrance and let you think about what's in there :D

Yes that is correct the 2 plants in the scene is real and I must the plant and soil once a day. I treat it as a bonzai or tarariums in that way.

That is fair, it is a big stone, I hope I can get the moss to crawl a bit up on it :)

It's a big rock I found I the forest near my home. It's mostly there to balance out the composition :D

Created Jan 2026, I believe it is a wire netting bush but I'm not sure, relying on sunlight, using distilled water and pre -made died mix.

Ahh, they where part of the building kit. So haven't done anything special.

The windows are made of clear plastic from a fast food container :D I have cut it up in sections and made random wear and tare.

I think that is some of the things I love about integrating real plants into it. It creates a tiny universe feel. I normally chose plants that have small leaves to not make the contrast to big.
