Terrain Workshop: Flipper Trees

This spins off from my Terrain Workshop: Undersea Accessories 3 post.  We're using the Minifig Flippers again but we're going to put them on a 2x2 Round Plate w/Pin Hole & 4 Bar Arms Up.  This time we'll have eight Flippers and the Arm Up Round Plate for nine pieces.  Which, again, is three too much for one Hit and three too little for two Hits.  It's also short of the Height Minimum for Cover.  So let's add three 2x2 Round Bricks to make this tree taller.

This is 12 feet tall and 15 feet across in 6P scale and 2 Hits.  Unlike
Monday's build, I don't feel like there's a lot of ways to vary this.











You could swap out the Round Bricks for 2x2 Round Plates and
keep building taller and taller trees that add 2 hits per section.  That
would also keep the "leaves" fairly close together for a dense foliage
look.  This is 18 feet tall and 15 feet across in 6P scale and 4 Hits.


I hope this gives people ideas or techniques to use in their terrain builds.
