The closest tree is a mystery to me as well,have no idea where I picked that one up but the palm branches were different looking and that`s what I wanted,the other one is a Verlinden tree with dyed green feathers for palm branches. The palms on the short tree are kinda plastic looking but that`s what I do,I make use of whatever I have on hand and make the best of it.

A North African desert diorama utilizing the Tamiya Horch/2cm flak gun. The flak crew are looking for a place to spend the night when they came across this old outpost ruin.
