This is stunning! The only part I thought could have been better is where the roots are, other than that though it's perfect. In fact I bet you could sell it on Etsy or such. You should definitely make more

I think this looks really neat! What did you use to cover the branches? I like to leave my wire bare, but I also like the extra texture that this has.

Right, I should have described the materials in more detail. The surface of the trunk and branches is covered in gypsum plaster mixed with white PVA glue. Then it was dyed with brown acrylic paint and some golden hued nail polish on top. And then colorless nail polish for additional shine

Thanks for Your reply. I never liked stones on those trees, because it makes them 'cliched' but You have great shape and it realy looks like leaves. I miss stronger roots and better way from 'wood' to wire at the end of branches, but it is good : )
