My entry to the Welcome to the Nam Campaign.

A Vietnamese Sapper in just coming up out of his spider holes as our valiant point man approaches.




(photobucket always messing w/ my photo size and res, what's the deal w/ that?)

Everything scratched; base, figures, palm tree, even the sapper’s bamboo hat.

Questions /comment welcome.

Original theme! and well done. Did the pointman already see the vc and is he waiting for him to come out or will he be surprised in a second?

Great job!

Excellent idea Neo. The ground work looks great, good use of so many different plants. What have you used here? The palm tree-trunk looks to be a weird colour ... sort of draws the attention towards that instead of the "action".

Thanks for the feedback guys.

Mark,
It's just one of those fog of war - bumping into each other situations.

Frank,
I got most of the plants from an old dried flower arrangement that was in my mom's basement for 15-20 years. They were all brown / wilted so I painted them. Not really sure what types they are.
The tree is not as bright as the photo shows (reds are alittle too hot in these photos).
