    Vietnam diorama

    Hi all, Just hoping for a little advice.

    I'm currently working on a club group build and need to get some foilage.

    I cant say too much about the model as other members are part of the same club and I am keeping the model a closely guarded secret, surfice it to say I think I need some grass, maybe a few trees and anything else you may think I need, so wheres the best place to get the items I need?

    Thanks Adrian

    P.S

    I know it s a open book without telling you too much, lol

                Would this be Alan by any chance? Like the name Alan if so....wish i could have come up with something better at the time when registering...would really like to change it to ''Dunno Wasn't There'' John if this is possible would really appreciate it as its become somewhat something of a joke amongst those who know me!

                Cheers

                  For trees, natural twigs with twisted wire branches look the part when they have a little foliage added.

                  A lot of the cheap fishtank plants can be cut up and repainted/retextured to look like bushes/shrubs

                  Standard garden twine can be unravelled and used as grass, either in long tufts or cut up fine to use as scatter.

                  I don't like hi-jacking threads but if you look at my "Tankbusters" and "modern armour" group-builds, and my MASH diorama thread you can see what they look like when in situ.

                  Might give you some ideas to expand on.
