Thanks guys. There is a history behind this article. I originally wrote a tree-making submission for White Dwarf back in April, to go with some rules and character profiles that Gollum Rules! wrote. They have been accepted and are sitting at the bottom of someone's in-tray in Nottingham now. I doubt they will ever see light of day, but oh well.

Anyway, the WD format is very restrictive - a maximum of 300 words for the entire article. I usually write that much in the first sentence, so I thought I'd rewrite the whole thing, retake the photos and make it significantly different for it to not be a breach of copyright, and post it here.

I have several articles under construction at the moment, but this one was the easiest to complete. My next one is a big one about Weathertop.

I loved these tress when I saw them in your gallery (The Tulgy Wood), and had hoped for a guide someday.
Magnificent article, thoroughly useful, and I will most definitely try this.
Thank! :)

Treebeard would approve... excellent results and a very clear, well illustrated guide. Haven't tried making trees yet myself but must remember this article for when that time comes around. Oh yeah, there's this white tree in a courtyard I have to make ...... old and twisted .... the tree, not me.... well, alright, old but not twisted....

Great article Al and a great idea to use electrical copper wire. I dont think many people would have thought of that. I think it was always coat hanger wire or garden wire and plaster paris that was in the GW guides?
