John did build one and I built the same thing about 4-5 years ago when I got into the hobby. Its no joke I accidently touch my hand on three separate occasions and it hurts like a B**** just about knocking you on your a**. If anyone does not believe me build one and touch it. Like Vinnie said I will not be liable if anyone does.

Using Photo Mat adhesive I sprayed it on various places over the first layer of grass. Then I applied lighter tones of grass to those areas that were sprayed with the adhesive.

Hi Shawn

Your ground work is excellent, It is just a good as the Model Scene mats I have bought :D

I have even looked at getting a static grass dispenser too.

The 2nd layer with the longer dryer grass has really picked it up and the bushes around the dead tree are really effective.

I have started to harvest the silver birch seeds from the trees in my garden for scale leaves at some point in the future.

I have to say Shawn what with your figure painting and your bases, you really are on a roll at the moment :D

Excellent work :D

Couldn't agree more. The results you get, especially with your figures, is sublime 8-)

Thanks for the kind comments as always guys. Still lots and lots more things to do. There are lots more bushes going in. What you see there may not even 1/4 of the amount I will have when all is said and done.

Things will slow now with the GB starting but I will still be working on this as well.

Painting the tent will take a very long time. Waiting for the colors to arrive.
