Need help modelling vines in HO

[Anonymous]

Does anybody out there have any ideas for modelling vines in HO? I want to do some climbing vines on an old warehouse wall and also some trailing vines for a rock cut. I checked the forums index but didn't get very far.
Thanks a bunch.

Try Woodland Scenics foliage and streach it out very thin.

Try using white glue applied with a toothpick in a random pattern.
Then sprinkle on dark green fine ground foam. Let it dry overnight, blow off the
excess will leave the original glue pattern.
Quick and easy.

Thanks folks. I'll try both ideas. I appreciate your help.

I have been thinking about experimenting with a different way to do vines other than the glue trail/ toothpick method. I haven't tried it yet, but I plan to use hemp strands from twine glued on the brick/ stone. Then dab white glue where the folliage will be and blow a mix of grass T44/T45 W/S fine grass. The effect I'm looking for is a vine that will show branch/root stock in spots. I was hoping to try this before our show this weekend. Will let you know how it turns out.
