Very nice. I’m not usually a fan of aquatic plants but these don’t look too bad.

I do hope you’re going to post lots of pretty pictures of your troops and tech  :D

Thanks for all the comments.

Just to make it clear, the Germans were painted by Phil Robinson, I'm just making the terrain for this project.

Where did you get the green Aloe type plants? For artificial ones they look great!

Figures are great as well!

They're from Ikea https://www.ikea.com/gb/en/products/decoration/plants-pots-stands/fejka-artificial-potted-plant-with-pot-in-outdoor-succulent-art-80395291/ (https://www.ikea.com/gb/en/products/decoration/plants-pots-stands/fejka-artificial-potted-plant-with-pot-in-outdoor-succulent-art-80395291/)

Easily removed from the plastic pot - they have a 6mm stalk that can be cut down and inserted into a more suitable base.  I made mine from 3mm mdf.

Very nice terrain pieces. They look really versatile too. The small trees are particularly nice.

No Venusians planned yet.  Opposition is in the form of Martians from Red Planet Miniatures  (http://redplanetminiatures.blogspot.com (http://redplanetminiatures.blogspot.com)

Looks pretty amazing! The tabletop is brilliant, and, as others have commented, the plants fit very well.

It is indeed from Ironclad, the 4 wheeled version (they do a 3 wheeler too) https://www.ironcladminiatures.co.uk/ourshop/prod_1020485-Steam06a.html (https://www.ironcladminiatures.co.uk/ourshop/prod_1020485-Steam06a.html)

Correction, that should be Panzerdampfmachine (a single compound word in German), not Panzer Dampfmachine.  And very, very VSF looking indeed.
