Well, I said I wanted to make some trees, so I looked around and what do you know!

Thanks, man. My trees would have to be a bit bigger since I want them to go with 25 mm scale figures, but then maybe I won't do it at all lol.

I have purchased a bunch of materials for a new diorama. It will be a WW2 battle scene. Series of tutorials coming for that. Keep an eye on my vids! Thanks for watching :)

Another alternative to scenic cement to seal the foliage to the tree is hairspray. I find it works really well.
