Autumn Leaves. No Raking Required.

A convincing diorama is often made by the smallest details. A few fallen leaves scattered across an airfield, gathered against a fence, or resting beneath an old oak tree can transform an ordinary display into a scene that feels alive.

The AK Interactive AK9170 Oak Leaf Punch lets you create your own miniature oak leaves from paper or, even better, actual dried leaves. No more relying on prepackaged foliage or settling for generic shapes. Just select your material, punch out the leaves, and start bringing nature into your miniature world.

Featuring four distinct oak leaf shapes, this precision punch produces realistically shaped foliage suitable for 1:35, 1:32, and 54mm modeling. The different shapes introduce natural variation, helping you avoid the repetitive appearance that can make miniature vegetation look artificial.

Using real dried leaves adds another dimension of authenticity. Their natural colors, textures, and subtle imperfections are already there, courtesy of Mother Nature. From freshly fallen autumn foliage to weathered leaves scattered around a WWI aircraft hangar, the creative possibilities are virtually endless.

And because you can produce as many leaves as you need, the AK9170 is particularly useful for larger dioramas, woodland settings, and airfield scenes where a convincing natural environment makes all the difference.

Collect naturally dried leaves in different shades of brown, ochre, and muted green. Allow them to dry completely, then use the punch to create miniature oak leaves with authentic colors and textures. Scatter them randomly around your diorama and secure them with small amounts of diluted PVA glue. For an extra touch of realism, concentrate leaves along walls, fences, and sheltered corners where the wind would naturally deposit them.
