Okay now firstly I'd like to point out that these are not my videos and I am not connected to them or there makers what-so-ever.
If need be they can be removed but I thought I would share the links as I just think they're so cool you need to see them.. :bow:: :eeek:
If like me you run to a tight budget, or like to scratch build for the sheer pleasure creating your own brings then you'll love these video tips.
I found them whilst browsing You tube, as you do... :wtf:
They were hidden amongst the train and track layout enthusiasts type of channels, though still very much a modelling community ( only smaller ), unless specifically searched for many scale modellers may not ever see them.... Until now. :D
Hope I am not showing videos and techniques people already know about.....

Seen this a couple of times by others but this man I think is just the best... :clap:

...and this idea and finished product is awesome... so lifelike... :clap: :eeek:

Again others use this technique but I think this guys finish rocks.... :banana:
Happy modelling guys.
:cheers2:

Updating the thread with a couple more interesting tree/bush building YouTube videos.....
I do not have any rights to these and I am only linking to them to show how these modellers make or create their own foliage.

This last hedgerow is small scale but may still come in handy to the scratch builder.. :th:

Hopefully these will keep you occupied and tempt you to build your own if needed...

Thanks.... And strangely enough I have used the root method to good effect. A little on the hill top on my "Call in the DAF" dio, and some has been used on my ongoing Nigel Wells North Africa GB dio base... :th:
