Terrain Workshop: Snow Covered Trees

I made the first version of these nine years ago.  Back then I thought of them as "alien", maybe because of the Orange Feathered Minifig Wings I used in one of the trees.  It does come in eight colors so it can be used to represent fictional trees.


In this case we're restricting ourselves to the White version of this part
because it resembles a snow covered tree branch.  The top section is a
1x1 Cone, a Travis Brick, and four Feathered Minifig Wings.  The section
under that is a 1x1 Round Plate, a Travis Brick, and four Feathered Minifig
Wings.  Under that is two 1x1 Round Bricks and a 2x2 Round Plate
These don't count towards the number of Hits because they are below
the Height Minimum for Cover.  Each section above that is 1 Hit.


This tree is 3 Hits, is 20 feet
tall, and covers 18 feet from
edge to edge in 6P scale.




Since I didn't have enough pieces to make a fourth tree of the same size
I experimented a bit with some other parts I had stashed away.  Three
the new top of the tree.  I know this is a little ridiculous but we are
playing a game based around giant-ish mecha engaged in combat.







This version of the tree is 3 Hits, is 32 feet tall, and covers 18
feet from edge to edge in 6P scale.  I hope this gives people
ideas or techniques to use in their terrain builds. Flickr page.
