Well the only modelling done in 6 weeks are these… my “ Winter Vines” scenics composed in haste whilst I added some fences to a partially built range.
And posed with a Eureka Miniatures (Australia) 1799 Range Austrian 6pdr for size comparison. It is a sample produced while completing the ordnance for the prior 1805 Russian Battery-Company.

Served from the WIP spray tray on a crisp but sunny near-Winter sunshine-
Well as a small project necessitating a bit of fiddling about with live, spiky dried plant material, it went ok. I trust the snow effect is adequate, though I am worried I do not have a ‘typical’ snow mat on which to use them!
About 6 hours work from cutting the bases (as per the rail fences sizes) not including the overnight drying required of Polyfilla, white glue and who waits for paint To dry? A base layer of ‘seasoned’ gravel and then the final layer is the pure white aquarium sand as before for snow/ frost.

PS- I’ll use a similar form for more green and growing vines we’d more typically expect to see. But those are really fine tendrils that will require firm basing and supports.
