Hi again folks, Here is another great clinic just entered on making tall Pines.This particular clinic is good for all scales although the models shown were for an On30 layout.

So, if you like the looks of this tree (details are better on larger clinic picture)
Stop by and read through the clinic.
While it may be nothing new to those with experience, its a great how to with quite a few pictures for the beginner and may even interest those looking to step into a new technique they may not yet have tried.
Here is the direct link to the clinic.[:)]
