I wanna know where to get fake grass, trees and such... actually I wish to do backdrop with my figures, however I think others like buildings would be hard to find. I remember XL shop got sell those fake grass long time ago but sold out I believe. Is there good tutorial or guides on making a realistic backdrop for misc figures? As for those 1/6 gun, ammo and stuff I know where to get them tongue.gif .

Here's one that I need to touch up with backdrop...

hmmm... that would make something like a landscape in a wild forest, hehe nice. I admired those who bought gundam model kits and then took the effort to paint it and make a nice landscape with it although it's usually meant for competition but they are true collectors unlike most of us just buy a kawaii figure, smile at it and put it there tongue.gif .

Perhaps we can have a picture gallery (can be posted at gallery BETA) to show some scenario mode of our figures regardless whatever figures.

You can try DIY with those cheap green dish washing sponge as the synthetic grass. Others like buildings I am not sure how they build so accurately similar to real buildings tongue.gif

Hahaha, VincC454 already told that you can obtain from those carpenter shops. It is useless item while you can recycle it to make fake grass for diorama
