No I don't want to eat them, but I want to ask how to make mushrooms in 1/35.
This is probably asked in the past. But you can and will help me

If I can't make mushrooms by myself where can I buy them??
But my first priority is to make them all by myself.

Thanks in advance

Never tried it personally but I think your best bet would be epoxy putty. Make a small ball, flatten it out some and stick it on top of small cylinder of putty.

Could work,

I suggest using the epoxy putty as well..or something like Sculpey. Just play with it until it looks right.

You can also use Grandt line large conical head rivets. They come on their own stems.

Hilbert:

How good are you at stretching sprue? Are you aware
that you can take a piece of stretched sprue and put
it right below a candle flame and start pushing it
toward that candle flame and the sprue will start
coming back on itself. Many modelers make buttons
this way. But you can easily make mushrooms, the
really small kind like we see in bunches on the
ground in the forest where it is very moist, by using
this same method. I'm not joking here Hilbert.
