Pete,
Would you like to put together just a small tutorial on making palm trees, this is one of the reasons I do not do diorama's, got the books but the knowhow evades me.
Cheers, Mike.

Peter, I'm in the same boat as Mike with the Ptsd, at least you seem to finish your builds and get some colour on, I have only managed to finish one since restarting, all the others I've done seem to fly through the air, and the're not even wingy things, costs me a packet, so your in good company, anyway onwards and upwards ...:thumb2:

Hi Brad,
Yep, mine used to go like that as well, the ARV nearly went the other day....... Cheers, Mike

Pete, apologise, for part hijacking your thread, keep it coming buddy, I can't get over your hairy stick skills... Do you paint your dio's the same way or using rattle cans ?

Hi Brad, I use hairy stick for everything no A/B or rattle cans, sometimes use my truted yard broom and if I feel autistic I use a artex roller for that perfect finish as you an see on all my models. :smiling3::smiling3::smiling3::smiling3:
My hairy stick collection.
