Base made and several lumps knocked out with a hammer to give it grip and then some holes drilled at 45degrees.  Shuttering fastened to the edges with sellotape round the edge so the plaster doesn't grip.
Last photo is the venus fly traps ready for painting.

I usually etch out the joints with  a scriber or small screwdriver.

Yes I do the same with a scriber, but being in a rush it was still not dry in the center section under the top layer, and started to come apart.  So have let it dry some more in the sun and then used a cutting bit in the drill.

Some colour on the fly - now should it stay as fly type eyes, as it is -  OR should they have some cartoon type black dots in each eye - decisions decision decisions.
