You make a mean lookin' tree there Aggro!
Thanks for the great thread!
Heres a few hairnet trees. Some are built from flowers (species unknown) and a little wadded polly fiber added to give it some body, the covered with random sized cut up pieces of hairnet. These are cheap hairnets too. The disposable kind used in fast food resturaunts. Hit with much hairspray, flocked, then hit some more.

Great photo, Aggro. Trees,...well, what needs saying?

Airbrush paints or spray cans, either way. The point is to make the skeletons & trunk a natural shade, not blue.

Excellent work Aggro, but Joe, feel free to join in. What's your technique for deciduous trees ? Would like to see and an 'Aggrotutorial' would be great !
