Right. As promised here is the progress today. The FCP is finished, I have created some trees and smashed up some rubble. I will make a start of the 25pdr In the next day or two. Nothing is glued down until I have decided where everything will go







The green is a little more prenounced compared to the earth in real life

Nice composition!  

If your scatter is well fixed down and you have an airbrush, you can achieve some very convincing colours by shading it with various greens and browns.  

Just a thought, all the best

Right. I have just noticed that with re-arranging my photos they have been deleted so I will have to replace these. I have almost finished but after a serious parting of the ways with my airbrush which resulted in it being hard pushed to suck even air!. So I am going to get a new one in the next week or two and then I should be able to make a start on completeing it
