I held off on King Kong for so long because I wasn't looking forward to the base. It lacks shrubbery. Actually, it lacks, period. So I decided to play landscaper and "jungle" up the island a bit. I went to Michael's craft store and picked up some small plastic plants, and then went to AC Moore and picked up some small palm trees in their dollhouse section. I always pictured Kong in the jungle, so I had alot of fun customizing "Skull Island".
