All told there are 38 pieces here. I can't do a huge table with this but there's enough to suggest plenty of hostile scenery for any outdoor themed horror setting. I would have done some shots of it all together but I have the 1812 snow table up and just don't have the space at present. The subject of a future update undoubtedly. Let's begin ...
 |
| Just finished these this morning: (L-R): Reaper Halloween Tree, RAFM Demon Tree, Ral Partha Demonic Tree Man |
 |
| Black undercoated, heavy Americana Raw Umber liberally applied. Then dry-brushed with Folk Art Mushroom with increasing amounts of Ceramcoat Quaker Gray. |
 |
| Reaper Halloween Tree detail |
 |
| Dotting in the owl eyes with a Micro-Art Pen ...terrible experience trying to drop it directly in the center. |
 |
| RAFM Demon Tree detail. I like this one a lot - the eyes are REALLY recessed but I tried to get the red glowing eyes effect like the Reaper one. |
 |
| Ral Partha Demonic Tree Man - like the RAFM one, the eyes were quite set back and black hollows didn't make much sense to me. The belly missed all my dry-brushing efforts but I can live with it. |
 |
| I actually don't know the manufacturer of these. These were a part of a set I picked up at one of the HMGS cons several years back. Any help? |
 |
| They came with these ... |
 |
| ... and these. |
 |
| Flipped. |
 |
| The next set from Armorcast were finished many years ago. A good number of these seem to be discontinued. |
 |
| (Same as above, different angle) Twigs and cork rocks. I wanted to keep a significant space for figures around these particular ones. I think I've caught a more natural arrangement in my efforts this week than these old ones but a discernible lack of improvement over the years would be upsetting. |
 |
| CD bases |
 |
| Same as above but another angle |
 |
| Eight of these but hey, seen four you've seen them all. |
 |
| Same as above - different angle |
 |
| Finally, here's five of the 10 Woodland Scenics "Dead Trees". Again, Seen five, you've seen them all. |
 |
| Bah, I forgot I have two sets of these to do to round it all out. |
Thanks for looking. Questions, comments, and followers are welcome and encouraged. If anyone can identify that set in the middle of this update, please let me know in the comments.
