RMweb Premium Fair Oak Junction Posted January 20 RMweb Premium Share Posted January 20 To be fair, it's very close for me. I already voted B, but A still looks amazing! 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium St Enodoc Posted January 20 RMweb Premium Share Posted January 20 To me, A looks like a dead tree with two trunks, which seems odd. B looks like a dead tree with one trunk that has fallen down, which makes more sense. 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks to everyone who took part in the survey. I asked the question because I think they both work in their own way. The trees have brass rod in the bases which is plugged into brass tubing, so it's easy enough to swap them around as the mood takes me. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

(I think, any chance of a full frontal to have a look at framing/composition?) Thanks very much. I'll be posting some finished images in a week or so, once the backscene is done. But for now the only ones I have are on the previous page, sans trees. 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lowish sun shining beneath the cloud cover to side light the wagons. brilliant - I like the representation of the field system and the tob on the stone hedge - out of curiosity, are the sides of the hedge vertical or have you made it with a batter i.e.: with a wider bottom and a slope or thee stage arc as it rises and narrows to the top? I'm thinking of making a short length (4mm scale) that I can make a mould from to cast as many lengths as I need. 4 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
