Very cool! Love how you matched the camo scheme to the base, looks like she'd blend right into the environment.

No, they are small tufts from Silfor. Perfect for stubby bushes in this scale.

Quick pics time Smile

Not as good quality wise as the first pic, so hopefully they are suitable.

Check that out! I've got a few of those kicking around that are crying out for some paint. Maybe this will get me off my butt to do a few.

I don't know Fighting Piranha...going to have to look into those guys. Yes

Nice job.
