Made with GW sprue and some thinner Wargames Atlantic sprue and used Thin plastic cement to keep it together.

For my Medieval Tourney game I want a tree for people to interact with. A lady’s favour is hanging from the tree. A small retinue of Knights is set to defend a bridge to prevent the other team of Knights from crossing it and taking the favour from the tree.

If I was making the game I guess a cheap 2D one would suffice.

Wherever there was a circular connection point I added "branches" from the remainder of the sprue to build up the volume of the tree to the front and the back.

I used a GW sprue, older style one with circular profile rather than the newer rectangular edged sprues. It just happened to look like a branching 2D tree.

The whole thing was painted Lazer Cut Brown – TT Combat spray primer paint.

The added clump foliage helps make it look more treelike and making something from what would’ve been thrown away always feels like a bonus.
