Hi Everyone
I'm a newbie here and I just started modelling. I'm going to start a project with a Gundam Seed Astray Red Frame 1/144 HG and i was thinking of a diorama for it. I had an idea of a sakura forest. I have read the article on how to make trees with Sea Foam, but i don't think it would look like a sakura tree even if painted pink. So can someone enlighten me on how i could posibly make sakura trees?? Thanks in advance.

Welcome to Armorama.

1:144 is very close to N scale railroad. N scale is 1:160 so it should match up fine with something like trees that can very in size.
You can try looking around any shops that sell railroad supplies and if they don’t have the right trees look online. Some one should have some.

If you can’t find any or would still rather make your own someone here should be able to help you.

And just what is a Gundam Seed Astray Red Frame?

Edit:

just found you something if your interested.

With these you should be able to make the trees by building up a little steel wool on the branches of the armatures and then glueing some of the ground cover onto it.
All you need can be found here.

The fine ground cover should be what you need but I don’t know if the Armatures are the right size. If not there are bigger ones you can find on there.

I hope this can help you.

Good luck with the build and if you need any help you will find it here.

Thanks redneck(no offense), I think I'll try that. BTW Red Frame is a gundam from Gundam Seed sidestory. Its a mecha with a katana, so that's why I want to create a diorama with a Japanese feel with sakura forest and maybe a Japanese castle in the background.

No offense taken. I’m proud to be a redneck.

I’m glad I could help.
