A short post just to let you know that I'm still busy with some things. Making a tree, well not complete. I cheated a little bit. I think you all know those little painted houses and figures to build a Christmas village. Well they have also a nice range of trees. One kind of tree I allready used in my Will this come to good end??? post in December last year. Now I used another one.
I show you what I did with some pictures.
This is the kind of tree I'm talking about. It's made of iron wire and covered with paper. |
Here I've painted it with dark brown. |
Then some glue and some clump-foliage. Et voila, finished. |
Now you could ask me what my plans are with this tree, but I won't tell you. Be patient and keep watching.
Hope you like it!
Currently painting: Vikings, medievals and zulu's.
Currently reading: nothing at this moment.

Welcome to my blog!!!!!
A week ago the world stood still in Belgium. 22 children and 6 adults lost their live in a tragic busaccident.
Remember them! |
Great looking tree. Simple but effective
BeantwoordenVerwijderenHallo Peter. Nice trees. I'm just wondering what kind of flocking did you use for the foliage and which glue fit the best to have it stick on the branches.
BeantwoordenVerwijderenI associate myself to the mourning of the Belgian people. Sad what happened.
Goedenacht.
I used clump-foliage from woodland scenics and glued it with simple woodglue on that tree. I didn't go simple but it worked. Next time I try a gel glue.
VerwijderenThank you for the kind words!

haha I will ask the pointless question :-p What are you doing with this tree...
BeantwoordenVerwijderenAnyway really nice I only asked the question because you said not to...reverse phycology and all that
Nice tree Peter, at first I thought you'd made a Beech tree, because that's what it looks like without any paint!!
BeantwoordenVerwijderenThe foliage I have is ro dark for that kind of tree. That's why I painted it dark.
