as for the grass, in that scale I would use a grassinator or static grass applicator as its called in the bussiness, you tube either one and youll see what I mean

when is the next vid coming out?

No, the Tamiya 1/35 M-26 Dragon Wagon. I have a Tank Workshop M123A1 Dragon Wagon tractor, too. I trained on the 123 when I was in the Army where I was a Recovery Specialist. I still have a soft spot for recovery vehicles of all flavors. I don't think i could build something as small as Braille Scale! Fat fingers and weak eyes! I'll have to check that one you mentioned out. I have some Academy stuff and it's pretty good!

The academy Dargin Wagon? I just built that.There is a show this sunday,I may enter mine in the braille scale division...

In 1/72 scale a 3/8" diameter rope would be .005" in scale. Mono-filament line would work fine because you wouldn't see the individual cords in that small a scale. It's hard to find suitable twine even for 1/35th. Decades ago my Dad used a fiber 300 lb test fishing line to replace broken strings in radio dials. Today that same stuff is a couple hundred bucks a spool! I was shocked to find that out. I wanted some for a Dragon Wagon kit's winches. Wiped down with graphite it looks very realistic.

There's a tool that looks like a two-tined fork on a paintbrush handle that's great for planting grass. You could easily scratch something. The strand just goes between the tines and you poke it into the surface. A dressed down pocket screwdriver would work. Slot the blade with a Dremel and grind the sides to narrow it and thin the blade. Whatever mark it leaves on the surface are easily filled with a touch of glue/medium/pigment mix.

No worries.. Quick fix.. As you had it in this video, it looks like North Africa (the landscape) and when the Afrika Korps got it, they painted it with that colour...
Even if you don't want to redo anything, it looks great! Just blame the artistic license to us "rivet counters" ;)

Where are you from, originally? You sound like you're from the east coast of Canada.

I got my doubts on that photo.. Was it coloured or was it taken with a colourfilm?
Yellow was not introduced until 1943..

It is grey, dusty grey. My mistake.
