Before I did the Airfix Battlefront I worked on this base from Bellona's Miniscenes. It is their "Ambush" one with removable hill tops, bridge and trap. I scored it on Ebay, but the hill tops were missing.
I wanted to experiment with shading and color. The color of the road came out decent, but I struggled with the general landscape. I added the flocking, but no ground texture.
The river was nice touch. I used ArtMinds Blue Waterscape. The only trouble with that is your surface must be absolutely flat to set evenly. The flowers were purchased as a set from Hobby Lobby. It gives a little color and variety.
I am assuming the hilltop went over the crater. The kits are 1/76 Matchbox more or less painted for the Polish Campaign. So this is a pleasant drive over the Polish countryside and scouting some trap door the Sd,Kfz.251 is sitting on. Good job guys... Benny Hill could do better!
