[yak face]

HI dave, sorry ive missed this one completely, so imagine my surprise when i stumbled across this absolutely superb scene! I just love the fact that its so simple yet so powerful and the composition of it is spot on too with the telegraph pole and bush just providing enough background -Brilliant! The bush looks great by the way, ill have to nick that technique (how about putting it in the unconventional materials thread? It could do with a bump, and lets face it ,you dont get much more unconventional than dried parsley!!!!!) and the baking powder snow is excellent too,might have to use that one too ( il2 stormovik on skis in the stash!) Top work mate ,a well deserved 5 stars. One last thing , which figure set did you get ena sharples from?!!masterbox- corrie stars of the 70's?!! Cheers tony

Thanks for the nice comments guys. Much appreciated.

Tony - 'Ena' came from the Plus Model Refugee set in resin. I thought it was quite expensive (for me at least) and the quality of the mouldings isn't brilliant but it was the only place I could find that type of figure (I've still got 'Minnie Caldwell' and the two kids!)

I'm sure I've already seen someone using dried herbs for foliage in the unconventional materials thread. I'll have a look. If it's not there I'll add it in.
