About product

Spruce with a short trunk 150 mm — a finished Model Scene tree

A finished model spruce roughly 150 mm tall overall from the Czech scenery vegetation manufacturer Model Scene. It is not a kit and not a loose material: the tree is complete and painted, and in a diorama it is simply anchored in place. Because it is made by hand, every piece differs in the shape of its crown and the density of its branching, so a group of trees does not look mass-produced.

A short trunk and what follows from it

Unlike the version with a drawn-out trunk, the crown here starts low above the ground and the tree keeps its typical conical silhouette almost down to the foot. That is exactly how a spruce grows in the open — on a field margin, by an isolated farmstead, at the edge of a pasture or as a solitary tree in the middle of a meadow, where it has light from every side and the lower branches do not die off. In a military diorama a low-branched tree is practical visually too: it visually fills a corner of the base and serves as natural cover for a vehicle or figures. A height of 150 mm corresponds to roughly a five-meter tree in 1:35, an eleven-meter one in 1:72 and a thirteen-meter one in 1:87.

How to plant the tree

Drill a hole in the base for the foot of the trunk and glue the tree in with PVA or cyanoacrylate. Cover the joint with the terrain using turf, static grass or leaf litter. With a low-branched spruce, allow for the crown taking up space down at ground level too — so think the placement through before you finish the terrain around it, to avoid having to go back to details you can no longer reach. A light dusting of heavily thinned paint from a distance handles blending it with its surroundings.

Who the tree is for

  • Diorama builders who want their vegetation finished, without making it from an armature.
  • Military vehicle modelers in 1:35 and 1:72 looking for cover and a frame for a scene.
  • Railroad modelers in 1:87 and 1:120 for a solitary tree in open country.
  • Anyone who needs a spruce with its crown down to the ground, not a forest trunk.

The tree is supplied finished and painted. The glue, the base and any further scenery materials are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.

FAQ

A short trunk means a crown starting low above the ground, that is the silhouette of a solitary spruce on open ground. A longer bare trunk corresponds to a tree from dense forest growth instead.

It is finished and painted. In a scene it is simply anchored in place and the foot of the trunk is hidden.

A height of around 150 mm works out at roughly five meters in 1:35, eleven meters in 1:72 and thirteen meters in 1:87 — the use follows from how mature a tree the scene is meant to have.

Ideally before you finish the surrounding terrain, because the low-set crown makes access to the details beneath it harder.
