If you have any questions, feel free to comment below. I also have more pictures and specific links on my blog www.sewnotwork.wordpress.com for some of the materials that I used. Brickintheyard.com has a cool http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JybFk2TfJ5k which is similar but uses flexible foam and more layers of plaster.
