Have you some examples of the smaller stuff you have used? I have seen some paper products I was thinking of trying out. The would appear to be laser cut leaves such as oak and beech. Not sure if it is really worth the expense across a whole army!<br /><br />The stuff on the rock is an old product from GW. I have no idea at all what it is called. Its small squarish spongy material. I haven't seen it anywhere since. I guess it is available though from a model train store.redmanphillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17002244242974401076noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5614932455774497815.post-42773153830466981252011-12-14T18:36:18.683+01:002011-12-14T18:36:18.683+01:00Very nice.

On the last couple of bases I've made with leaves, I've grinded dried leaves from the great outdoors, into smaller bits (typically a couple of millimeters á side), and glued them onto the base.<br />But the rest you've done is very much to my liking; fairly easy to do and way better than resin bases, that's for sure!noestehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05406526666189312484noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5614932455774497815.post-58146404427114032952011-12-14T16:41:48.844+01:002011-12-14T16:41:48.844+01:00Lovely.

Mainly, its that I don't really like their shape and they don't really resemble piles of leaves in the woods if that is what you are truly after. Although your woods in Europe are probably a bit different than our woods in Wisconsin that have a huge variety of trees and the leaves all blend together once they have fallen. I prefer herbs and seasonings for their variety. but that is my personal preference.<br /><br />I like your use of the twig. Bayardi stumps are also a nice touch that could be added to the occassional base if you do a bunch of them.<br /><br />Paint work is top notch as usual.<br /><br />What's that little clump of green material on the rock, its cool looking.PsychosisPChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16201339994030225109noreply@blogger.com
