75mm gun and crew
Posted by Buddho on Saturday, February 3, 2007 7:11 PM

Here is my latest vignette, made from an Italeri cannon kit with figures, Aufwerks leaves, silfor grass, artists gel medium for the groundwork, and tree roots for the trees.

"WOW" was my first thought too. Amazing. Love the weathering on the gun. I love it all around. Did you say "silphor grass"?  Is that another name for static grass? I want some. Where do you find it?

Wow! Cool job on the gun! You've managed to "muck" it up to perfection! The grass and trees also look great. The figures compliment the seen really well especially the guy blocking his ears! well done Buddho. It's really a neat little vignette!

Cheers, Arthur

Looking good!  I have the same kit somewhere in my basement and I don't think my work will come out as good as yours.
