Table for this weeks game

 Here is a town setting for this weeks game.

It shows the trees and rocky ground in action.

Trees Update 2

 Trees finally flocked and ready for the table

 

 

Trees Update

Trees sprayed green and inserted into bases.

 

The tree trunks still need to be painted and the trees still need to be flocked.

Trees

I am currently busy making trees as seen on the following blog http://paulsmodelrailroad.blogspot.com/2010/08/trees.html I base all my tree on Hexagonal bases and will be showing you these as well.

The hexagonal base is 3mm thick MDF board and the tree trunk is a 6.5mm plastic tube cut to various heights.

Here the trunk has been inserted and the base covered with gravel.

Here are the various shapes single, double and triple painted in brown. The tree trunks still need to be textured and painted and the bases still need to dry brushed and flocked.

This is how the tree looks after shaping.

With this tree I experimented with tea leaves as the flocking material, I must say I am quit pleased with the outcome. An excellent looking Autumn tree!

Here is another experiment, I have just sprayed this tree green and I think it looks good for Summer.

This is my forest in waiting.

and another...

I will keep you posted as I go along.
