Hi
I'm wondering if anyone can help...
I'm currently working on a 1/35 armor diorama (Tunisia 1943) and I'd love to depict an olive tree or two. I looked through the forum and some diorama companies but to no avail. Anyone know where I can buy some or any pointers to making some?
Thanks
Andy

That is a good article on how to make the tree, and to top it off, you can get the Olive leaves and small branches as a laser cut paper kit from Kamizukuri.
I have them in my shop, they run about $11, and have enough leaves and such to outfit about 3 -4 trees.
Drop me a PM and I can tell you more about them.

Thanks for the post.
I can't believe I missed this one - a really helpful article. I have tried using "paper clip" armatures but the results were not too convincing and rough on the hands.
Thanks.
