I spent some time last week working on some forests.
Materials used.
- I bought a small package of tree from woodland scenic. (I can make trees, but the time/effort isn't worth it) - 14 tress is about $25 and its all I needed.
- I have a variety of flocking materials (pictures below)
- Both .60 styrene sheets, and some flat wood boards to use as base for the trees.
Forest Bases
This part is fairly easy. I used some already cutout 1/4 inch wood boards I had from home Depot, and some cutout designs of the styrene sheets for the sizes of forest bases.
I then put flock on all of them.
Tree Bases
This part takes a little bit of work and time.
I need to cut out and paint the bases for the tree. I paint them brown, in case any flock falls off over time, it will look like dirt.
I cut out the small shapes with styrene. this way its sturdy enough to balance on.
In progress Paint pictures
Next step is to glue the tress to these bases
Now I need to get the base of these trees to look nice.
