For the Shorehammer wargame convention this fall, I've been working on a new battle mat--one made with teddy bear fur.</p><p>As part of that project, I've built about 50 jungle trees without bases. Instead, I'm equipped them with 2.5-inch needles that I can push through the fur mat and into underlying insulation foam.</p><p>This will allow me to have trees that seemingly rise out of the ground, must as in real life. </p><p>Hardly a novel idea. But I did some other cool things to my trees, such as increasing their height to a realistic 12" to 16", and tried out a new approach to the foliage. </p><p>I can't seem to get it to publish on this site, so I'm including a link thecorvuscluster.com/2023/09/10/building-plug-in-jungle-trees if you'd like to take a look. </p><p>Thanks. |

"2.5-inch needles " Oo-er, that sound's really dangerous! |
