Title: I am done making trees. Almost.
Post by: snitcythedog on 31 August 2017, 10:13:45 PM

Evening all.  
I finally collected all the materials I need and built my forest.  Here they are.

The link at the bottom has all the information and links for how to make them.  I really do have to shout out to Dr Mathias for his suggestion about using Plasti-dip to seal up flocking.  It works a treat.  Here is his thread http://leadadventureforum.com/index.php?topic=41545.0 (http://leadadventureforum.com/index.php?topic=41545.0)

These trees are made without the plastidip and they shed quite badly with lite use.

These are made with the plastidip and the box of trees has been dropped off a table so I am pretty sure they are holding the flocking better.

As I was about to finish up I was handed these by one of the guys in my local game club so I have a few more to do.

Absolutely! 8)

That forest looks great; that should go a long way populating an entire table. I especially like the birch tree copses btw... :)

Those look great, any chance of a tutorial or some WIP shots when you do the next lot?

These are REALLY good! :-*

Are you thinking of branching out and making more different types or are you just leafing it at that? ;) Sorry, these jokes are probably barking up the wrong tree!

The next batch are just going to be based since they are purchased trees so not much to see there.  
I linked the toots for the trees on my blog but I have attached them here.
My Birch toot:

Unfortunately he has removed this post on how to make the jig.  I will have to take a photo of mine when the sun comes out.
I am planning on some oaks later but that will wait for this to come in.
