Could you wire a smaller tree down to ground level instead of pushing one down ? Next question ,side tree or one in the centre ? Interested to see how this one pans out . John.
I'll have a go but as yet, I am not sure which tree. I have time to think. I went back to the start of the thread and looked at the progress and the story that I had in my mind when I created it. For me a narrative (in my own mind) helps me design and evolve a group, continue the story so to speak. While I I could wire a smaller tree on the outside ... I think it's one of the parents or the oldest (Ie - thickest) sibling that needs to 'fall'. I really need to think it through more and choose carefully... visually it will need to make sense and I think the trunk will need to guide the viewer into the heart of the group... somehow...
Also - I like the idea because it'll create a more chaotic sense (I think)... currently some of the trees - on some angles of viewing - look too similar in their curve - even though I tried to avoid that! A fallen tree will break that similarity and create a natural scene too.
