I'm always down for a well-built diorama that tells a story and buddy.....you did just that here. That was a good idea on the trees using the milliput and feathers as they do look the part. It's truly great to see you back in the forum scene and again just as great to have you here Clint.

It's truly great to see you back in the forum scene and again just as great to have you here Clint. Thank you! I had a lot of fun with this ancient kit. Forgot to mention that I also 3d printed the tracks. I absolutely hate rubber band tracks. I've tried paper in the past for palm leaves and some laser cut ones but feathers look the best to me, they are also the cheaper and easier way too.

I brought it to a meeting a few months back, I can't remember if you was at that one or not. I did make a video on how I did them and the YouTube generated CC seems to be accurate. youtu.be/JFYLvjRc4Dc?si=OlWs0zQE_hCWZbjp

Great job Clint. The tank & figures look great and the action in the scene is awesome. Thumbs up with the feathers - somewhere in Clients neighborhood there's a bald pigeon.
