I like the effect. Mind if I ever use the technique? Not sure if its "your" technique. Have you tried seeing how it would look with finished tiles as the last layer?

It is not my design but so often used it is not credited anymore. Tiles on the last layer would make the sandbags lose the curviness, so I do not intend to replace them.

Nice like the tree and sandbags. Only thing is... well their sandbags maybe sand color? Razz

Only thing is...well, they're prototypes, they'll still be 'sand coloured' the final model.

@DP: Probably not, I'm not trying to spend all too much money, and this is the simplest least-using pieces tree I could make.

Yes, good idea.

Also make them have more foliage if at all possible. Wink

Do you know how much those leaves cost? I'm already spending a fortune on that Razz

Irl, they actually look fine...and not every tree was /that/ full of life.

I really like the sandbag idea, and I hope the trees will be as good or better than the ones you've made before. Smile

I'm sorry about the off topic post , but could you open a thread for the Sherman tank again? (if i posted on the other topic I'd get banned for major uber bumping Razz

). I would like help on mine.

Hey Phima, It would be cool if you could tell me the pieces you used in that tree. Thanks. And good luck on your project.

I'm gonna take a wild guess and say he used slopes, leaves and arches. Wow, I must be a genius.

Well, this thing isn't dead yet. I've just changed the setup to save myself a bit of money on supplies, but it should still be just as awesome Razz

Expect a picture in the next couple days.

Uh, this is the first time I've done it...not sure about anyone else...

PhiMa, if you can pull this off, it would be too good for words. Smile

K, so, I've decided not to continue work on this project seeing as I simply don't have

1)The patience
2)The money
3)The Bricks
4)The time

to make a project this size. Apologies to all who were awaiting this to be finished. Razz
