Thanks - There's a core of 2mm brass rod through the middle of the beads. Keeps them straight and gives a nice spike at the bottom for sticking into the foam base.  :)

Well, I think the beads I have for the center posts have more characters...  lol

However, they may have been a bit wider, perhaps too; yours look smashing! I know I can't take credit for suggesting beads, but I will for pointing out sculpted, antiqued ones. Gott im Himmel, I have to brag about something.

All that said, you've made a believer out of me; sis can get her own damn beads!

Cheers Doug. I think I too am a convert now. Never thought they would look right before, but a bit of paint on these and the should come up lovely.

Blimey, apart from painting and strewing some static grass about, I think this one's finished!

Looks super!   :-*

It'll make a fine terrain piece and grace any table with it's presence.
