Product Information

Full details

This guide is for model railroad enthusiasts and diorama builders looking to add realistic greenery to their landscapes. The key benefit is the lifelike appearance and varied heights that enhance scene realism. A minor caveat is that the trees are intended for model building and not as toys. The NOCH Mixed Forest Standard Trees are detailed model trees designed for "reforesting" large areas, featuring hand-painted plastic sprues flocked with specially developed realistic flocking material.

FAQs

What is the height range of the trees in this pack?

The trees in the NOCH Mixed Forest Standard Trees pack (24620) range from 10 cm to 14 cm in height.

How many trees are included in this pack?

This pack contains 8 individual trees.

Are these trees suitable for children to play with?

No, these trees are model building parts and accessories, not toys. They contain small parts and are not suitable for children under 36 months due to the EU TSD warning.

What material are the trees made of?

The trees are made of plastic sprues that are hand-painted and flocked with a specially developed, realistic flocking material.

Can I glue these trees to my model landscape?

Yes, model-specific adhesives such as NOCH Landscaping Glue or similar craft glues are recommended for securely attaching the trees to your model landscape.

Are the trees pre-assembled?

The trees are typically ready to be placed and glued onto a model base. They come flocked and painted.

What is the 'Mixed Forest' designation?

The 'Mixed Forest' designation refers to the realistic variety in appearance and height, mimicking a natural forest composition rather than a uniform plantation.

Troubleshooting

Flocking material detaches from the tree.

Apply a small amount of model glue to the affected area and reattach the flocking if possible, or reinforce the base of the flocking with a minimal application of glue. Avoid over-application, which can look unnatural.

Tree is unstable on the base.

Ensure the base of the tree is clean and flat. Apply a slightly larger or stronger adhesive, or build up the base area on the landscape for a more secure fit.

Paint appears inconsistent or damaged.

Since the trees are hand-painted, minor variations are normal. For significant damage, a very small amount of matte green acrylic paint can be carefully applied to touch up the area, but this should be done sparingly to maintain the realistic look.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Highly realistic appearance suitable for professional model building.
  • Hand-painted details increase the visual appeal and uniqueness.
  • Realistic flocking material enhances the natural look.
  • Varied heights allow for more dynamic and believable landscapes.
  • Good quantity for creating significant forest areas.

Cons

  • Not suitable for young children due to small parts (EU TSD warning applies).
  • Requires careful handling to avoid damaging the flocking.
  • Primarily designed for static model scenes, not for interactive play.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

These trees are designed for immediate use in model landscaping. To place them, apply a small amount of model-specific adhesive (e.g., NOCH Landscaping Glue or a similar craft glue) to the base of the tree or directly onto the model landscape where you wish to position it. Press firmly but gently into place and allow the adhesive to cure according to its instructions.

Compatibility:

While designed with NOCH model building systems in mind, these trees are compatible with most standard model railway scales and diorama bases. They are suitable for various brands and types of model landscapes. They are classified as "Model Railways Parts & Accessories" and are intended for use with model building products.

Care:

To maintain the appearance of the trees, avoid direct sunlight and excessive moisture, which can fade the paint or damage the flocking. Cleaning can be done by gently dusting with a soft brush or using a very lightly dampened cloth, ensuring no excess water is applied. Due to small parts, keep away from children under 36 months.
