Cheers Ron, sort of nicked your idea when it came to thinking of something soft to land on, did think of a flock of sheep but couldn't find the cotton wool:cheesygrin:, pilot fitted in lovely ta.
Got to figure out how to make a field of wheat now
I can't take the credit for the ploughed field. I first saw it on one of John's (Centurion3RTR) cracking armour dioramas.
Glad the pilot fitted O.K.
I think it was Dave (gern) or Scott (Noble) who has a great way of making grass ect. I think it was some sort of carpet pile. I'm sure someone will post about it!
Just another little update, finished the painting on the base and just got to make a frame to go round it, looking for a suitable piece of hardwood on site but apart from that its done, really enjoyed my first GB non GB thingummy but i think i'll stick to 1/35 armour or bigger, 1/72 is just a tad small for my clumsy fingers. I'll stick some proper pictures up on the completed section once i find the camera.
