Meanwhile, at the cottage...a scratchbuild!

I did get a few minutes after everyone was asleep a couple nights back to airbrush the trees. There's something too brown for my liking about Woodland Scenics tree foliage. I've never been a big fan of polyfiber trees anyway as it's all too easy to over-coat them in ground foam. Why use polyfoam at all if that's the result? WS instructions are pretty clear about stretching it thin. I may even go back and trim out more of what I put on the two I just finished.

Just a thought, sifting the ground foam, and applying in several coats, might give you more control of the density of the leaves, much the same as expanding the Polyfiber reduces the density of the branches. I've used that technique for several years now, and have been quite satisfied with the results. I also use a clear gloss spray, for the adhesive, which seems to limit the amount of foam that sticks in each application.
