They have the look of troops pushing forward under a hail of fire.  Good work!

They took me 10 days, but I would say around 40 hours . I have been for some time wanting to start documenting the actual time being spent from flash removal to finished basing.

I hope you did not mind the You Tube link.

I have been trying to find some inexpensive (FREE) lush giant southern trees for the background scenery and this is what I came up with.







There is thousands of miles, furthure than the eye can see of these. The source of them come from the dead ends of our many sage bushes in these parts.

That looks awesome...glue some foliage on it and you'll have a great looking tree!
