First experiment in 'foliation'. Next armature needs more structural branches to fill in the rather bare areas.

What grade flock are you using? you have caputured the nature of the deciduous leave quite well. I oul be hesitant to fill the tree in any more however. Other wise the poly fiber take over and it looks like you have put green cotton candy around a wire stick.

I have used 'Green Scene' fine flock GS 125 'Parkway green' on some old postiche type material as recommended by GG in the book. On reflection you're quite right about not adding more branches to this one. The next armatures will have slightly closer branch structure.

 

 

Hi,Nice trees! Are you making many of these?Best regards,Jeremy

 

Don't ask! I prefer not to think about how many that we're going to need on Balcombe Viaduct!
