Subject: eureka! lifelike model cane!
Date: Sat, 26 Nov 2005
Morning guys,
I've just set up some shots on temporary backgrounds to show how I'm progressing with my model cane fields made from local 'Yarra Valley' grass (lucky I started at this time of year when the grass is seeding!). Note that I spray the grass with hair spray then paint them to match the background photos.
Left: Farm scene and grass modelling material. Right: Yarra Valley grass with seed heads.

Left: Several rows of 'cane'. Right: 'Cane' planted on diorama with background photos.
What do you reckon?? You can almost smell the sweet perfume!
Regards, Don
