The figures are mostly based on pennies, since 2007 Canadian pennies are magnetic. Figures are attached with just white glue, when its dry I cover the penny and the base of the figure in more white glue, then cover the base in a pile of decorative sand (that I got at a dollar store) it might be crushed coral, remove from sand pile and let dry.
When dry (I usually wait til next day), Paint a wash over the sand, a very runny dark green paint (I use another cheap Dollar store item, DecoArt, Dark Forest green) that I've thinned with Windex (glass cleaner). When dry a wash of Brown ink and Windex. let it dry. Dry brush with yellow (Brand Artist Acrylic: Spun Gold, another cheap dollar store paint).
