I think that they are baby banana trees he just pasted on to the base. Even my neighbor's banana trees don't look that real.

Awesome dio. I love vegetationdioramas, nature is so difficult to replicate, but you've done a great job.

The rice paddy looks great, too. The only thing missing is the smell...

Man this is sublime work here. I agree with who ever said that veggi is hard to replicate and it's a joy to see it done so well in this dio.

Thank you very much for your kind comments ... really the bannanas are made with natural ficus leaves and raffia ...and painted just like a figure or a kit ... really a kit each one, all diferent look.

BTW, Would you be interested in such a trees ??? because I,m thinking about talking with a friend, owner of a very well known modelling company, to see if he should be interested in launching such a item to the market ...Please let me know what you think about it...

Thanks in advance.

Santiago
