......Hey guys, I "planted" some new trees on the club layout. Looking at them now in photo's they remind me of Cottonwoods only w/darker leaves.

.......Wuddayathink, should I lighten up the leaves or just lightin up myself & "leave" [Thats for Fishman] them alone?





......Heres another one in kind of a 1950s postcard shot of the Main St. tunnel.



.....As usual, any input will be helpful, thanks guys.........Remy

Hey Jeff,

I think your trees look great. I've taken RIT fabric dye and put it in a spray bottle to "liven" up the colors of some of our drab trees. You can always try this. RIT makes a couple different greens and yellows that you can use. So what are your trees made of anyway? I'm always looking in Michaels and AC Moore in their artificial plant departments for stuff that's small enough to use for landscaping material.

Where, what and by whom? Please?

boy thats looking great ... dont change a thing. its like those standardized tests: always go with your first answer. btw, what are you using for leaves?

thanks for that shout out jeff ... you know i'm always 'rooting' for you!

They look great to me, Jeff.

Welcome home.

Be careful spraying RIT dye, as it contains salt, and will rust track if the spray hits it. I learned the hard way.

Great trees.....did you make them from scratch, or are the trees bought assembled ready to use?

...........OK, Ive lightened up one of the trees to what I think a proper Cottonwood hue is.
