Didn't Pratchett write The unadulterated cat? I've read all of the disc world books (Except the Tiffany Aching books). I like the RR foliage!

Very late response, but I think the added foliage looks great, really adds some depth to the printed buildings. I've done the same thing with mine, even going so far as to add bits of roots and vines over the printed items, trying to match the patterns as closely as possible. I think this will make adding figures and assorted vignettes much more effective.

Use the foliage - its great!
I use those a lot in my models - it makes them come alive and is certainly more attractive in many cases. Have look here where the foliage really impacts on what is a very simple basic little model.... http://www.papermodelers.com/forum/345010-post48.html

I know this might sound dumb, but laundry lint is free and can be molded or painted into just about anything like hair or foliage.

After reading this thread from the beginning, it just strengthens the reason I love this community. The "unadulterated" humor that leaks out of every thread, somewhere (with just a pinch of sarcasm, now and then). And, yes, I agree with mixing as you like. I started in wood, went to plastic and now am a paper nut. Keep it up boys and girls!

Well, this was a shock to my well being at four AM. I had to pinch myself a few times to make sure I really was awake.
Still here. Just not a prolific poster. I took the critical advice and used less foliage. Good advice. I finished up the Uni - set it up on the dining table to get a good look at the whole arrangement. Then put it in a glass cabinet in sections. The Tower of the Arts didn't fit. So it sits on top serving as a dust antenna. My ongoing model building has been railroad model related and not using paper for the most part. So, few postings on Paper Modelers. I read early AM without fail. Well, mostly without fail. I love seeing other modeling work here and reading construction ideas and methods. I guess you could think of me as a giant leach. Although I prefer to think of myself as a sponge. The paper purists would say "a giant blotter." Thanks guys for the new notes and comments. They are a really nice start for my day.

Is there any chance of getting a look at your finished model? If you have time to take a few photos I'm sure I'm not the only one who would be interested to see how it came out.
