    Great video Sir!! Love the low opening like a spider hole. I also think the palm fronds came out great, I'd like to try that method. I love Sculpy! I tried a few others until an old timer in our club suggested it, and ive never gone back. The cost is low, and the fibers in it make it great for sculpting clothes or cloth!!. Can't wait to see the rest!!

    Well done Rick . Don't see many palm log bunkers in Pacific dioramas . There sure are lots of pics of them though . The trees look really good and the feathers are genius.

    I like the palm fronds from feathers that’s pretty good idea! Why didn’t you just use A&B putty for all the palm tree logs? And here in Florida we have lots of palm trees so you did a really good job👍🏻 I do like the idea of the air dry scalpy that would be really good for diorama groundwork and study wasting ANB putty I may have to try that one day.

    • @RickLawlerPropaganda
      @RickLawlerPropaganda  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I had thought of the A/B (Apoxie or Magic Sculpt) and would have probably gone with that for the trees, but just wanted to try the Sculpy to see what can be done with it. Like I said, it really doesn't have any structure in of itself (neither would A/B), and it's easy to work with. As for the base....it's a winner.

    What size would you recommend for 1/16th scale Palm Trees? That is to say, the width or diameter and/or height. Awesome work, very inspirational. Thank you.

    • @RickLawlerPropaganda
      @RickLawlerPropaganda  ปีที่แล้ว

      It's just simple math. First you need to know the size of a palm tree. Once you figure that, then scale it. For instance, if the tree is 20' tall = 240", then divide by 16 (your scale) =15". 240/16=15.
