Wow! Your groundwork is absolutely amazing, Kevin. I don't think I can do something like that.

Where'd you find those thickets? Where did you get that grass? They look so real!

I also have that Tamiya Sherman 105mm. I like the build.

However, you might want to accurize your next Sherman should you decide to do one in the future. Here's a link that I used for my own Ardennes Dio sherman. Plus, great help from Shonen Red, Andy and theBear.

Angela thanks for the links. If I wouldnt have had to rush I would have enjoyed fixing the problems with this 105 sherman. I also am glad you like the ground work so far. The thicket is rubberised horsehair with some crumbled dried flower petals for the dead leaves, the grass for the most part is heki wild grass I painted in a dormant color. Hope this helps. If you have any further questions just ask. Cheers Kevin
