Tonight was another one of tree building, I got a pile more circles made out of the matting…
I managed to get four more trees done with what I had. Now to be honest I only used a quarter of one of the mats so I can make a whole host more…
Now the next question is to undercoat them in what colour? I have black and green here, I can probably pick up some brown on Saturday. The other option I have considered was dipping them in some brown drawing ink.
I have spray glue and or heavy duty hairspray to put the flock down. Next problem is I need some flock to add to them, now I have sawdust stuff, but I think foam would look better. I have posted on Geek Gaming to ask what they would recommend.
I will carry on with the diorama tomorrow and will make a start on the animals.
A big shout out to everyone who has sent out positive vibes, useful comments and support for this project.

Good progress there! 🙂 A long time ago I bought some cheap trees and decided to paint and flock them. I sprayed them black and then flocked them with a mix of greens and they came out looking not half bad! I haven’t got any pictures of them unfortunately since I gave them to my nephew a few years ago!

They look good. I’d still go with sawdust flock as I think it would look closer to pine needles than the foam sort.
Cheers,
Pete.

I used a very dark brown, espresso says the label, and for flock, I started with dark green clump foliage followed by a dusting of sawdust flock (dead grass colored)
