Great trees - I never thought to leave some of the outer sheath on the wires, to give you thickness.  I always strip all the wires down and then wrap them round each other to get the thickness - another idea to steal from you - hohoho

I think I had added one tree too many, I may remove one.

The trees really round off the diorama.

I then decided I would make a small diorama for the  M6 Tank Destroyer, M6 GMC.

Should it be hidden behind trees or a damaged building?
A trawl of the t'interweb gave me some ideas, as usual it is all getting out of hand!

The sign on the building was had painted and the bricks are card chads stuck down painted and mortared.

You could butt these last two dioramas together to make a larger one.
