Here are the trees I just got through the Ebay store.
The  computer mouse is for scale.
I like them a lot.
I will build multi bases and mix them in to my existing Vietnam stuff.

Martin,
Those do look nice, better than the ones I got from a charity shop.

I'll have to get some.

Best wishes,

Indeed - they will look good on a jungle table.

This is  stage 2.
The trees are mounted on plastic sheet with putty to hold them firm.


Stage 3 will be basing, followed by the final stages of painting the bases and finding a box deep enough to hold them.
I recommend these trees.

Looking good, NMartin! The pink bases are a nice touch  ;D

I use a deep (7l ?) A4 Really Useful Box and lay my trees carefully on their side.

I may go over to Hobbycaft with a measure or a tree.

Wow !

I am really impressed with your last 2 pictures... I like the way you based the palms; it helps a lot in the creation of an immersive jungle scenery.

Super work !! I like it very much.
