Forest preview

At last I have managed to find the time to start the forest. The tree experiments are over and work has begun at last.
The tutorial will be a while off as I want to finish the full forest before posting the tutorial on line.

Here you can see the height of the bottom section of the trees compared to some miniatures (32mm to top of head) the trees are made in two sections so that the stumps can stay in place for working out line of site and cover.

The next picture shows the actual height of the trees compared to the models.

The last of the first batch of trees is now planted, I now have start making the second batch and hopefully the olive paint will have arrived before I finish (it takes more paint than I thought it would to colour the foliage.)

As you can see, it takes more trees to make a forest than you would imagine (okay a pine forest then as oaks etc have HUGE [as wide as they are tall] spans and as such take up far more space.)
