Cheap Model Pine Tree that Looks Awesome - Model Railroad How-to

Make Realistic Model Trees in Fall Color: Do you want to get some ultra realistic, foreground pine trees in your model train layout or diorama by spending less than $2 per tree? Let me show you some ingeneous techniques using commpnly available, natural material to build some. All you need is a little time. :) In this episode, I show my technique of making beautiful and detailed pine trees. These are made in N Scale, but the technique should work very well for HO, OO and 1:72 scales as well. I build two trees here, one with extensive branch details which took a little longer time to build; and another is made in a faster method which sacrifices a little bit of detailing of the first tree, but still makes a wonderful model. _______________________________________ Links to channel shout out: Vinny (bnsf6951) - Anthony (Hastings BNSF N Scale Modeler) - ________________________________________ Materials: Straight twigs of any plant Asparagus fern needles and twigs Static Grass - 1mm in 3 colors - Autumn, Spring and Winter Scenic Glue Wood Glue Toothpick - 1 Brown Spray Paint Acrylic paints: Grey and Unbleached Titanium Tools: Dremmel rotary tool Snipper Box cutter knife Peco Precision Static Grass Applicator Flat brushes - 1 soft bristle, 1 hard bristle Visit Website: Follow my blog: SOCIAL CONNECTION: Follow me on Twitter: Connect on Facebook: Connect on Instagram: CREDITS: Music: Blue Danube by Strauss
