Those palm trees are rather effective. Once the trunks are painted they will look very much the part.

Great stuff all round Monica

Monica I love the idea of using Chenille feathers to make palm leaves very nice, and everything is coming together nicely, like the camo on the marine uniforms too.

ta Scott,do real appreciate the nice comments,

I,m happy with the marine,s camo,not to bad first try,:rolleyes:

 

[flyjoe180]

I think you've done a fabulous job on that American camouflage. Did you mottle using a small brush or sponge?

 

[monica]

ta Joe,just by brush,over a coat of lifecolor R,L,M,02 or UA,504,and pickup the shadow,and high lite,then did the mottle over the top,

Inspired idea for the palm fronds, I love seeing folks using such diverse initiative! I must have a go at one of these before too long...

 

[monica]

glad that you like the idea John,


if a bit of testing what looks good and how too with the shaping of them but works well,
