  Most probably this is the same fellow who copied my H0 gravelworks in N in brass.

The guy is freakin' mind blowing. It's worth it to dig thru the whole thread that Artizen posted. He is building some sick pine trees! No need to understand German, the pictures say more than words.

My mind is blown. Pine needles in N. Silky-smooth, scale steam valve gear. Superb craftsmanship.

Jacq - page seven shows the construction of the building.

Everyone - pages 5, 6, 7 show the track and the water features (and lots of trees!).

Remember - this is 2mmFS (1:160).

In the more recent pages of the thread he is explaining the tree making process further. The key seems to be the directional (underside only) application of glue and electro-static fiber.
