ThestationRabbit Posted July 18, 2014 Share Posted July 18, 2014 Hi everyone, sorry I haven't been around much busy, busy, busy preparing the ground. What with the horrid/lovely Welsh weather we are having the weeds have destroyed all my good work recently, so have to do some cleaning up before we can do anything else Anyway do any members have a good ideas of the best as in resilient, Scots pines for my Horsell Common/Woking diorama? I'm trying to accumulate Merit plastic trees for the gardens of the houses etc, give them a re-paint and varnish and they will be okay the Scots pines are really a different matter and have to look at least an acceptable tree, they don't have to stand up all year round as a lot of the dioramas will be put away for the winter. I know you can get kits to make excellent trees though I expect they wouldn't last outside I have some Gaugemaster pine trees but they don't look really the thing, too Christmas tree like. Hope you can help. Many thanks, Fiona X Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThestationRabbit Posted July 18, 2014 Author Share Posted July 18, 2014 Thank you. I never thought of that way I'll study and follow how it's done. Brilliant. Thanks again. Wonderful method and if I do get W.W.D (Welsh Weather Damage) then it's easy and cheap enough to fix. Fiona X Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
traingeekboy Posted July 18, 2014 Share Posted July 18, 2014 Not a problem. There are many ways to make them but this seems cheapest and I think reliable for a module that needs moving. If you put them in pre drilled holes you may be able to remove them when moving the module too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
