Examples include magical plants, crystal formations, alien vegetation, ruined structures and decorative scenery elements. By combining these components, hobbyists can create unique environments such as enchanted forests, alien planets or ancient magical ruins.

How to use fantasy scenery for miniatures or scale models
Fantasy scenery is usually added after the basic ground structure of a base or terrain piece has been created. The base surface may first be prepared with materials such as sand, texture paste or flock.
Fantasy elements such as crystals, plants or decorative pieces can then be attached using hobby glue or scenery adhesive. By combining colours and textures, hobbyists can create unique miniature landscapes.
