Hi Simon.  The Roland is absolutely sublime, but that's a beautiful littler model of the work stand as well. ;D  Using scale bolts was an inspired idea!

The grassy tufts on your base look wonderful.  What did you use for that?  Thanks.

Regards,

Bob

The grass on the base is a  finished product, from Mr. Polak of the Czech Republic. This is his website www.polakmodel.com  , very large selection materials for the bases.
Here's an example of how it looks

I'm looking forward to the rest of your magnificent Roland build.  Your work is first rate!

Great work. The ground cover on closer look is really neat. I will have to pick some of those up.

Hello Simon:

Outstanding work all around.  The open hatches are a nice touch, and the tailskid stand.  A work of art.

Best
