N scale Ponderosa pines about 4-5 inches "tall"

Beautiful!  The Ponderosa is one of my all-time favourite trees with that stippled red bark.  You nailed that on the trunk in the middle.

Same way of building  trees as mentioned/showed after # 137.
But now some had a slight different approach about adding the fibres... Also  various shades  of the "Basiccolour" of some  tree . Plus some have 0.5 fibres as imm. needles and some sieved fine turf.
