I still think they look...I really do not like them. I still think they look like weeds and they are a lot of messy work. They do not seem to blend in with any other trees (puff balls, Heki, multiple chinese cheapo-s (even after flocking), etc.).<br />rickb773https://www.blogger.com/profile/05262672896467890741noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6248909949616274522.post-28173198096062891862017-08-15T15:29:00.410-07:002017-08-15T15:29:00.410-07:00This comment has been removed by the author.rickb773https://www.blogger.com/profile/05262672896467890741noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6248909949616274522.post-40649570827521435722017-08-15T05:31:51.705-07:002017-08-15T05:31:51.705-07:00I think Karl is right on. Take a 40' or 50'...I think Karl is right on. Take a 40' or 50' boxcar and use that for your measurements and cut down the trees accordingly. I feel for up front, standalone, or the start of a forested background, Super Trees or equivalent are really needed for the detail they provide but puff balls behind them work great for the canopy.

I cut the armatures down so I end up with 50-60 foot trees (correct for the area I'm modeling) each box gets me 100-125 trees. After trimming (but before painting) I soak them in a diluted Matte Medium. That helps with the fragility. Let the MM dry completely before painting. I plan on making another 400-500 trees using this method. Karl A.https://www.blogger.com/profile/16321265208083134312noreply@blogger.com
