Excellent stuff. The oak tree in particular. ;D

Hi,

I would assume that Busch or other model railway companies should also sell boxes of sea moss in the UK:

http://www.busch-model.com/online/?rubrik=3&topnav=&art_id=6801&sprach_id=en&spur_h0=1

This is the one I used: Kit for realistic trees and bushes.

The price is a bit steep I say. My one was 9 Euros back in the day, but I bought it some years ago.

It took longer than expected for the foliage to arrive here, but now the tree is complete. Check out the second part of the tutorial if you like.
