Tree Collection

Trees are wonderful, not only do they replenish our oxygen but they provide cover from enemy fire, make great hiding places for sappers and hidden units, and enhance a game’s visual appeal. For the last six months, I have been collecting, painting, and creating copious amounts of trees. One can get them from eBay rather cheaply (especially z scale, they go great with 1/300 scale games like Battletech and micro armor). One can also create their own with some relatively inexpressive components—I have done both. I also don’t work on all of them at once. I tend to do a dozen or so at a time in-between projects or when projects are drying after a wash. I feel that not only do I not get bored doing a lot at once, but that by only doing only a few at a time, it makes my trees look different and creates variety from batch to batch. So take a look at a few of the samples I posted and let me know what you think. Be sure to click on the photos to make them larger and to see the detail.
