Halloween trees

Hi IBC.
It's been awhile since I posted a weird tree/creation. For the Halloween I created two displays for my kids. and I would like to share it with you too.
Happy Halloween folks!

Have you defoliated the trees on purpose, Jun or that was a happy concindence which contributed to this new project of yours?

The trees are both dead, that's the reason for the leafless appearance...just kidding . Yes Alexandra, They were defoliated for the Halloween display at my house. and another excuse to rewire the trees after the Halloween.

As for the avatar. I wanted to create a moving living tree like that, but still no luck...

Nice presentation Bro, the timing of defoliation is perfectly considered for this occassion,

Spooky. Hope you have sound effects too!

Hi Rob.
Actually there is...I don't know what happened the photograph, it never catch the sound effect

I was thinking of providing white smoke for fog effect.

Jun,

Well, it is hard to tell from the trunk without leaves!!! Anyhow, nice presentation. The black trunk gives us a sense of mystery.

Kind regards,

Jose Luis

Thanks Jose Luis.

actually, even with leaves the two species are hard to tel apart, Both have the same size and shape (oval) of leaves with alternating leaf/nodes. Bantulinao got thicker and leaf seems to concave a bit. Kamagong got flat surface.

Alexandra (again on my new avatar),

The more I worked on trees, the more I can feel their emotions...I think that is how they feel towards bosaists like us.

Thanks!
Actually I got another black tree with a "Hanging tree" concept. but it was too morbid and looks too depressing to be displayed for my small kids that is why I cancelled the tree out...I am sure my wife will hang me. ...I'll try to post it too, for IBC.
