Man you are doing great! This kinda reminds me of that Twilight Zone episode with the Civil Was soldiers marching by the plantation house, they were dead and walking to their final destination- chilling scene

:dude
 
Thanks Chip! :) i'm trying to create that feeling of death following them on their retreat, just waiting to take them one by one....

My attempt on making small pinetrees :hmmm please let me know if it looks ok, i'm not sure about the sawdust if it's the right colour, or if it's to much branches on it :blink

First the base

Love it Mats, but one question, can't help to wonder where the water from the waterfall is going?
 
:geek well MP it's supposed to run into the ditch on the side of the road, must finnish off the grass there and then i can fill it with water :D

Hey that's an easy to do pine-tree! (y)

I would give the treetrunk some texture with putty or something like that,so you don't see the twisted wire.

Greetings,Ron.
 
thanks Ron, i went over the trunk with some woodglue and i'll see how it looks after some paint tomorrow.
It went together pretty easy and with some training it may get better (and maybe bigger trees)

Small update 2 small pinetrees done the 3rd almost done, needed some things from the garage, but the door is jammed because of the cold weather :bang head

:blush: very long time since an update on this, it's been on hold but today i was trying to make some bigger pine trees, here you see them test fitted on the dio. (they are not finnished yet, need some more texture and highlights)

Thanks Bob :) took some pics for a SbS on the pine trees if there is someone interested?

If that dude was behind me, I'm pretty sure my eyes would look something like that. Post up the SBS on the trees at Sprue U, please? (y)
