Forget the tree (which is fantastic), the real work went into editing this video together, this must have taken you ages, well done!

[itribbits]

I didn't have a dowel, wire, or any of the other materials so I just drew a picture of a pine tree but it wasn't very realistic. What did I do wrong??

I just found a roadside Chistmas tree ! It has snow & lights. I can make a 1, 000 trees for my diaramas . You would not believe what people throw out. Just take a ride through your local condo streets . I find really great stuff. I am a re-cycler re-purposer. I need a barn for all the things I find. TVs, blender, toasters, microwaves, air fryers, and much more. My wifey is not happy with all the stuff I bring home. But I can't allow the goodies to go into the landfill ! America is so wasteful. FYI I Happy New Year.

I’ve been waiting years for a tutorial like this because I’ve always felt that 5% difference makes for an amazing tree for photorealistic dioramas, so thank you so much for sharing this. Also, your channel is worthy of soooo many more views and follows (and here’s one more person subscribed!).

A perfect video with no wasted time listening to useless chit-chat. As far as getting a point on the top of the dowel I use a barrel pencil sharpener that I got for $1.79 at Staples. You can get ones that take larger-diameter pencils.

[rushthewash]

That tree is top notch! Nothing makes a miniature table look as awesome as a few well made trees!

[mikemealey]

♡that looks great! ☆pine trees are scrawny because they are crowded out in nature

[RyeBreadGangster]

I loved this video and I’m going to use it as a reference to make some trees. And just a heads up: This channel is going to blow up with more well edited and well executed videos like this. You’re going to be a huge channel if you keep it up!

[AmbiEID]

I've been looking through videos on fir tree techniques for the last several days for a project and none of them came close to being as helpful and concise as this one was. Thanks for sharing your work and also great edit!

[RodBatten]

Great job making this tree. It is a bit involved, as you said, if you want to make a bunch, but I don't think faster trees will ever look this good. Great video production quality, too.

[boomerdiorama]

I love the innovation on your wood dowel - wire armature trees! They look fantastic! Yes indeed, they are also tough and will stand the test of time as well - a true model tree. Bravo ~ Boomer.😁

[cfwargaming]

This is by far one of the best model trees I've ever seen. Absolutely incredible attention to detail and consideration for robustness. Certainly added to the terrain list! Great work!

[kevinwalsh]

This demonstration was amazing. Beautiful trees for villages. Thanks for sharing. I have many bottle brush trees for the holidays and these will add texture and interest.

[mikeflack]

Yes, it takes a couple of hours working relaxed followed by many years of excellent satisfaction. Few endeavors have such a stellar ratio. Well done. Excellent also that you mentioned others from which you learned. Subbed.

[joshuaturnquist]

This is the most impressive model tree I have ever scene. Absolutely mad, awesome job.

[TheAcegrate]

Short, to the point, well done. I will use this method in making trees for my layout. Thank you.

[galatician]

Love it! ❤ Certianly a new twist on this method ! I will try this some day, and subbed. Thankyou! Well done!!!

[marksmith]

Just found your channel.. love the terrain/scenery builds. This fir tree tutorial is the best I've seen... and I've watched a lot.... Will def try this technique.. 👌🙂

[courtneywatts]

I’m so glad some of us have found you through knarb makes! Your editing is incredible and you have sooo many useful tips!! I love that it’s all done and explained in a simple way to follow along and make with 😊 I can’t wait to see what else you have in store, and now time to go watch all your other videos haha 💕

[RealTerrainHobbies]
