In creating our large deciduous trees, we chose the White
Oak species as our prototype. This prototype was selected
for our first release because it is the most widely found
oak tree in the United States. Historically, White Oak trees
have also been the most widely used oak tree for product production
in the United States. They have been most known for their
use in the production of barrels, railroad ties, and furniture.
The color of the foliage on our ScaleTrees Complete is from
actual color matching of a mature leaf of a White Oak tree
in the middle of Summer.
A
typical hardwood forest is 85' tall, and a large stand alone
hardwood tree may reach a height of 110' to 120'. How tall
is that in your scale?

our flexible realistic bark textured coating. Then BranchBunches
are added to fill out the mass of the tree branching structure.
Finally, our green foliage is added to make a completed Summer

These
ScaleTrees start with a twisted wire armature with our flexible
realistic bark textured coating. Then BranchBunches are
added to fill out the mass of the tree branching structure.
As
you can see, they are rather dark. The coloring of the BranchBunches
is to add depth and shadowing to the finished tree.
These
are designed for the modeler that wants to either make fall
trees or trees that have different colors or textures than
our completed ScaleTrees. Just add the foliage of your choice
to complete your trees. They are also excellent for making
sure your ScaleTrees blend with your other scenery by using
the same foliage.

Modeling
Tip: Use "forced
perspective" to get the best results in
your scenes. Forced Perspective is the practice
of using larger objects in the foreground and
smaller objects in the background to make the
depth of the scene appear larger.
