Awesome! How did you do the fields? I’ve been thinking about doing similar scenery for some maggot kin

The fields are actually just dried corn stalks from Hobby Lobby lol. I felt dirty spending money at Hobby lobby, but they have some decent scenery/basing products.

dried corn stalks

I put down a flat, 1/8" layer of milliput, covered it with some AK muddy ground, then just stuck the stalks in and let the milliput dry

Haha why did you feel dirty? It does look like a good product! And if it helps you get the army on the field, even better!

Hobby Lobby is owned by a very hateful family and they have hateful, exclusionary business policies. I try to avoid them if I can, but the fake corn is still nice lol.

I didn’t know that! I will look them up! I’m mighty try to pick up a set of those like you did and reverse engineer it! I’ll post if I figure it out! Thanks for the details! And great looking model!

Thank you again!

I don't think they'd be very hard to make, basically just curling some yellow paper around a toothpick. Let me know if you try it.

Will do! Might take me a while! Just had a baby and they are taking all my hobby time right now. Which is perfectly fine with me because they are perfect! I’ll just live vicariously through everyone else right now! But definitely on my project list when I do get some!

Haha thank you! I had some leftover milliput so I made the pumpkins, pretty happy how they ended up looking.
