Man-I wish that I could make trees that look like these and have them be able to withstand being outside! Any ideas? There actually are trees in Mogollon.

Maybe I´ll give it a try and plant one in my garden see if it withstand the wet weather here in Holland  Dunno about the weather conditions on the Mogellon, seen it snowed..but looking at the trees on the Mogellon you use ordinairy scenic materials like WS, natural branches and so on. Maybe you should give it a try and try a few. Always seal them with an spraycan matte laquer so it´s possible they could withstand it being outside..

Thanks Martin for the lacquer idea. Probably if I shot the trees with several heavy coats it would keep them OK. I will use the wire armature route, I imagine making trees and then soldering them all together for outdoor strength. The fibers you use for needles-who makes them? You probably mentioned it but I'm an old dude and may have forgotten. I don't need a forest of trees, but I would like some that look like yours.
