Yesterday I added the epoxy resin. Picture shows how it looked a moment before 🙂  
 

Album image #6
This is how it looks with epoxy resin. I added to much blue and it is darker than I planned. 
 

Album image #7
I prepared some canes made out of brush bristles but they don't look too good...

Album image #9
It occures that the base is smaller than I expected and there is not enought space for Sherman...

And finally it's done!

Thank You Simon. That's not the end, more plants are coming 😉. Saddly the base occured to be a little bit smaller than I planned and there is very limited space for both models.

Nice composition but looks a bit too overloaded i would say.
I think Spanjaard is right, a smaller vehicle could work better.
But i like the idea!

or extend the base to make it bigger 😉

Or cut the Sherman in half, but that would require building the interior - I think someone did similar thing here to Pz.III

Good idea, you can also close the open space with plastic sheet.
I did the same with my PT project.

Thanks for the advice mates!
@ Spanjaard,- I've felt that a smaller model will do better but currently I don't have anything that may fit. I have Italieri 1/72 jeep assembled but without a driver. I gues it may be a good time to check my box with 1/72 US troppers 😁. Maybe I will get lucky and find something interesting.
@ Łukasz, Simon- I am affraid that building 1/72 interior is beyond my capabilities 😉. Not mentioning cuttting the model without completly destroing it.

I like the imbedded Puma 👍 . Looking forward to see the jeep adapted to the good ground work 😉

Thank You Rui 🙂. Sadly jeep will not appear at this base - I was unable to find a driver ☹️.
