Here's an Abrams and a Bradley standing in a shallow stream.

That looks suspiciously like Otter Creek.

BTW, are you using an ionizer to lay the static grass?

The Finnish finish looks great! Did you make the groundwork?

Favorite comment - "When I die, I want to be an instrument in their band." That's some powerful stagecraft, to say nothing of the music.

Ahem. Good looking work on the Shilka upgrade. I'll have to look up the ionizer video after a bit - good looking groundwork, too.

Nice!

I ordered a couple from amazon and made a trip to the dollar store to build one. Makes a huge difference in the application. There's another DIY on Youtube by Luke Towan (Maybe that's it and he has a couple channels?)
