This is looking really good Andy, really good indeed. Nice selection of figures to animate the scene and tons of detail. Dr Cranky would love the rusty corrugated iron in the hedgerow.

Got to agree with everyone, very impressive work Andy. I can't just look at one thing as there is so much to see, i just wish i'd known there was all this PE when i did mine lol.

Can't wait to see it in all it's glory.

Have fun, John

Wow, fantastic work. Everything is so spot on, a 5 star build mate.

Thanks once again for the kind comments chaps, it really gives one encouragement

Pete, the grass is my concoction of fibres ripped out of hanging basket liners with some Silflor tufts of various sizes & colours dotted around' plus a bit of ground cover scatter here and there. I muck around with it all until it starts to resemble something vaguely foliage-like

Incidentally, the scatter under the hedgerows is the lovely mixture called "forest in a pot" which I bought from Realityinscale, a company in the Netherlands. I took out most of the larger "lumps" as they didn't fit in with 1/48 scale so well and the resin toadstools will have to wait for a 1/35 diorama too....... (Hmm, that's just given me an idea for the next GB)

Anyhow, I'm just waiting to get my hands on some veneer to finish off the edges of the base and I'll take a few more photo's for the GB completed thread

Thanks for the tip andy ripping my hanging baskets to bits as we speak and will definately look into realityscale

[Guest]

wow. you got so much good work there andy. the tanks lookin superb. lovin the dio base to. what did you use for the bushes?

[Guest]

Cheers bobby

the hedges are rubberised horsehair with fine groundcover foam glued on and the large shrubby tree is that seamoss stuff with some foliage stuff I got as a sample from somewhere or other, wish I could remember 'cos I quite like it for 48th scale leaves

[Guest]
