We made rocks last year using chicken wire. After shaping the wire we attached sheets of newspaper to the wire with masking tape. Then we mached over the roughed in shell. It worked great.

Right. I used duct tape to partially cover my chicken wire so my long strips of paper mache would have something to stick to. Tape and (dry?) newspaper is a good idea too.

Thanks guys I did this and it worked perfectly.
