1st step of creating 3D River Model

Today, I started my river project by drawing out the river onto a large piece of foam board. Next, I took different shades of green and bordered the side of the river, so that when I add the "water" to the river, it wont leak out. I used the color green, because when I add the Styrofoam to the sides of the river, I will add fake grass to the sides.
These are some of the things that I will do to make this project(not in order):

• Cutting Styrofoam to make the sides of the river
• Filling up the river
• Making grass
• Making Garden State Parkway(Maybe)
