For the past few years I have been using Coconut Palms as any old Palm Tree for my Sudanese,El Cid,in fact any deserty-type game that we play-but of course it's not correct!-so what to do??
THE WIFE,is always ordering "stuff" from Amazon(have you heard of them?) and she always asks if I want anything-well,this time I did-I asked her to order me some proper Palm Trees-within two days they arrived..............................
24 assorted sizes(6/5/4/3 inch high palms)-they didn't have bases with them,apparently because they are classed as "cake toppers!-what kind of cake would have palm trees on it??-so I got out my trusty box of washers,and got to work with No Nails,UHU and Superglue!
Palms galore-plastic,nicely coloured,and I think, quite realistic looking,not bad for £17.50.
Top photo shows the palm on its shiny washer base,bottom shows the palm on its MDF base.
The finished articles-watch out for them soon!!!
Nice palms John. Surely they won’t be in your next game with Paul ;-) know Dave has been looking for palms
ReplyDeleteChris,you know me,the bloody things will "pop up" in every type of game from now on!!
