Hello, just for a bit of fun while my dio segments are drying out, and still waiting for the post due to the Easter holiday, I threw this together of a WW1 British sniper, I may or may not include him in the main dio, however its quite surprising how much space a sniper actually takes up, oh by the way this is a rather large 1-72.

The sniper looks good. The lichen is a bit too 'fishtank' like. I would add a bit of spray glue, then sprinkle some dried parsley over it to give it some vegitation.

Thank you Scott, dried herb leaft, I never thought of that, I have a load of railway stuff that doesn't look to bad, but obviously nothing like the grass and bush effect I am after without paying through the nose for it, the fish tank like plant I have used is actually moss, the other stuff is that railway scatter green in 2 grades and something called apac packing basically very small black crystal looking things eh errr, hard to explain. Going back to herbs, I guess you could use real plants and simply spray whatever colour takes you, food for thought.
