Looks great Dan! However the grass is a little perfect, especially if some clearing work has been done. You could create some muddy tracks or over turned earth around the stumps where activity would have been during the removal of the trees. Also some light tracks from vehicles and the bird itself would help.
 
OK, messed around, got creative and this is it.... Not gonna go crazy with this, as the model is the focal point, and I dont want to fu*k up what I got so far....

Maybe mud and crazy sh!t on the next one.....

Looks great Dan, and I agree about not going overboard at this stage.
The only thing I would do IF possible, is to add a couple of 'bare' batches here and there. If that's grass 'mat', this can be done simply - just dampen the area required, and scrape off the 'grass' - keep the scrapings. Add a little sawdust around the base of the stumps, to blend them in a bit and look like the aftermath of felling, then add the saved 'grass'. The bare patches can be painted a sandy colour, with a little sawdust added to the wet paint, for texture. Only takes a fewe minutes, and will bring it alive. Otherwise, great job mate!
 
I understand - no problem. You could use your new Heckler Koch to spray a few different shades though? If not, it looks great as it is. BTW, keep a look out, a guy with a limp and wearing a flameproof black jumpsuit, and a cammed - up face, might be hanging around after dark, trying out a CTR, ready to lift that airbrush. On the other hand, I'm too knackered these days for all that!
