A Kitten In A Tree - Complete

[armorguy]

This wrecked panzer sets a new standard indeed my friend, it's unbelievable what a beauty !

[TRM]

Thanks G!!! The kind words are very encouraging!!!

OK...still working the tree angle. Just got back from services for my sister from this morning...that is all done!!! Everyone, including me are doing well!! Back into the saddle so to speak!!! I hope to have some sort of update later on....on the tree!!!

Thanks for stopping in!!!

[TRM]

Hi Ya jackwagon!! Think I have the tree!!!! Finally! Second try (yes, it does not always work out the first time) Just waiting for a little glue to dry and I will take some pics.......

[eastrock]

looking forward with the vegetation, T!!!

[TRM]

LOL....patience......got a couple pics coming up....beginning stages!!!

[TRM]

OK then, tree update:

After a failed attempt, the second round seems to be going OK at the moment. This is the Johnt method of tree building (just about). I have substituted the epoxy putty for modeling clay (because that's what I have). But I have still started with the wire frame!!!







More to go on this. White glue on the finer branches and some touch up on the big stuff!!!

Thanks for hanging in there!!!

Nice work on the tree T. I have to get me some sculpting stuff myself.

[bigjohn]

WOW, cool progress on the tree dude! Your getting the hange of recreating phots.

[TRM]

New to the sculpting world here!! I think I can pull off something appears to look like a tree when I am done..LOL...I will be happy!!! I am itching to get some primer on this to see how it looks!!! Then Bark bark bark!!!!!

[406 Silverado]

yeah that is one thing I need to try out. Been putting it off but now I need to do it for the JT base. Should look good with bark and paint T.

Hi T, the Panzer looks freakin awesome, and the tree is superb! Except its not really my method, I stole off someone else...I think it was Anthony Reeves from Treemendous. Oops I probably should have given him credit at the time.
I'm sure you know how it is, you pick up a lot of hints and tricks from here and there
Good to see you're keeping busy mate, Cheers!
JT

[armorguy]

Now is he buildin exact the same tree !!!!!!!!!!!!! Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!

(Guy, jumps in Mount Doom).

[eastrock]

Its more looking like a dead tree!!! T, do you have a photocopier in your head? lol

[AndyArgent.]

Awsome work mate. keep it coming

[TRM]

No problem JT!! I think I remember over on the AK forum, maybe mentioning that. The greatness of this hobby is learning new things!! It just like if I take one of the new Celticwerk bases and hand them out to 20 different people...I will get back 20 different variations of the same thing!! This is no different. You learned from him, I learn from you and so on!!!

Oh yeah....been keeping busy!!! But having a ton of fun!!!

G - LOL...no jumping into Mt. Doom until you finish that dodge buddy!!!! Thank goodness it has no leaves!!! Can't see sculpting each of them

Thanks ER....no, no copier....been told there might not be much up there though!!! Plenty of room for one!!

Thanks a bunch Andy!!! (Andy is another one that make an extraordinary creation of Arberism!)

[eastrock]

thought you have a photo graphic memory just like the other build that you've finished

Amazing Tree!!!
