I got some cheap model railway trees from Amazon
OrgMemory Mixed Model Trees with Base, Diorama Supplies, Model Train Scenery, Woodland Scenics, (19pcs, 2-6 inch /5-15 cm), Ho Scale Trees, Miniature Trees with Base:
They are a bit...smaller than I expected.
On the Kickstarter forest mats I previously got. |
Of the 19 or so trees, most would work for 15/18mm FOGN or Epic ACW, but are a bit too small for 28mm Oathmark or Rangers of Shadow Deep.
The trees dropped off some flock in the bag and when I squeezed some to get them to stand up they noticeably deformed. Understandable as they aren't really supposed to be moved around much around a model railway train, and are a lot cheaper than buying some Noch stand along tree's (that would like better, but cost as much as one tree for this 19).
Compared to some FOGN trees |
Two of the tree's are white/snowy, which I could use for Rangers of Shadow Deep scenario 2 - spider web trees, though I need 4 of them in total.
Their small plastic bases are NOT stable on a wargame table and are smaller than the FOGN tree bases, so won't stand up very well. I will need to base them on some card or foam, though if you had a flat D&D grid they would stand up fine (though liable to be knocked over if the table gets bumped). I expect I'll glue them to small 1 or 2 inch pieces of cardboard and paint and flock them, though I might some on places of 2-4 each.
