Hi Bricksie. I really like your creativity. These trees definitely look snow-covered, but with enough openness to show the green elements beneath them. Trees are extremely difficult to build when you want to show special effects, but I really think you have created unique solutions to problems we have all faced. Thank you!
Those trees look great. That's a really neat design that should be pretty adaptable to different variations. Some all-green ones lower down on the mountain will fit right in as 'summer' versions and be a nice transition with elevation. The angle of the branches splaying out from the trunk can be adjusted here and there to give a slightly different shape from tree to tree. You could add 1-2 more of the large leaf elements to each assembly to make the bottom wider and make the taller ones more tapered. Awesome design!
You’re a tree herder, an honorary Ent. Nice job with the snow covered trees. I think you can let the leaves be hinged out more so they look more substantial.
I think the super tall and skinny ones will fit in much better when they are surrounded by other trees. You won’t see the bottoms much, only the tall tops! Ur chillin
My only critique is you mixing two shades of green on an evergreen tree. Not sure how it is in Canada but evergreens are typically consistent in color unless they are dying, diseased or covered in something.
You could try to add extra leaf elements onto ends of bottom branches and raise their angle to give the bottom more width, maybe overlap some in middle and leave top just 1 element and tighter angle to tree.
If you use an octagonal piece for the bottom two layers of the tall tree, you can probably add enough leaves to flare them out in eight directions, giving it a tapering look
When Lego ships from Denmark, it comes Canada Post so you won't have them until the strike is resolved on top of the standard wait times. However, the 'best seller' parts comes UPS so you are in the clear if you wanted to go ahead with that portion.
After the catastrophe of yesterdays ill-informed vlog vid its nice to see you redeem yourself today. Probably best you stick to what you do best and what you audience is really here to enjoy.
Not having the needed parts whenever I have a building idea is always so disappointing. I'm waiting on Standard parts from October to ship. Standard parts have been shutdown until sometime in January. Excellent tree tutorial!
4:50 tree looks like helicopter rotors lol "thwop, thwop, thwop," "thwip, thwip, thwip," or "whup, whup, whup. id definitely like the idea of tutorial videos if and when u can. winter village turned out great .
The trees look good! But you are not kidding when you say it takes forever for pieces to get delivered from Billund... I am still waiting on parts that I ordered in beginning of October.
Would it work to use the smaller leaf element as you move up the tree and maybe angle the branches out a smidge from top to bottom to give the narrowing effect? Either way I'm gonna be building some of these!!!
Great tutorial. I used model trees and other modelling techniques this year instead of Lego (how non-purist of me) might need to “branch” out and try this. Maybe even non-snow for my castle scene 🤔
Thanks for the tutorial on the tree builds. Don’t let the haters affect your builds/videos You’re doing a great job with both. Quick question, what is the square footage of your winter display? Looking to expand mine next year. Thanks!
@@BricksieYou should be able to make and post whatever videos you want on your own TH-cam channel without backlash from others. Do whatever makes you happy!
Would a snowy hill behind the winter village both hide the backs of the buildings and give the trees some height without being too tall giving you more resources to make more trees? ❤
do you have any of the old stump pieces? i wonder how your trees would look inserted into them with a lot of base foliage to hide the gap in size. i also wonder if there is another piece that might give your trees less of a pointy top like maybe the 2x2 round part with the rounded bottom, might be to blunt though.
Nice video! I don’t know why people complain your channel is just about spending money, when here you are going through your spare parts and building amazing trees! And also explain your process while doing it!! Love the work you’ve been doing, Hope comments like this stick with you over the negative ones. 🙌🏽
Are those not bestseller pieces? Or does it take so long even for bestseller parts? For me it is aroind 2 weeks for bestseller and since i am used to having next day delivery, it is crazy long 😅
You are missing pieces for the trees ? You seem to forget you have a 3D printer !!! 🤓 3D print is not the same quality as Lego, but printinng Octagon pieces or the like in the lower part of the trunk, nobody gonna see that !!! 😋
have you considered instead of green leaves, using autumn colors at the bottom? also, maybe the tree house set, with white leaves and details might be cool to consider \ adding
Showing different lego build techniques always makes a great episode. Secondary part use absolutely fascinates me.

Make hills of snow behind the houses and put trees on them

Those trees look amazing! Thank you for showing us ways you build things that are also part of one of the coolest LEGO cities ever.👍
Awesome tutorial like the white elements for the snow new snow trees are
Lego trees have come along way since the classic pine tree moulds and Fabuland.
Wouldn’t the tree look better if the branches didn’t overlap but butting them sick sack if you get me
One tree at least needs a lego squirrel
Hey Bricksie, I think I adding tiles to the while and green leaf elements would help fill out the tress more... 1 x 1 circular or those quarter tiles
Thank you for the tutorial!! These green trees would be great for my Disney castle!!
Down the road, you could build a tunnel over the tram in the back and then add trees, or anything, behind the houses for depth and height!
If you use an octagonal piece for the bottom two layers of the tall tree, you can probably add enough leaves to flare them out in eight directions, giving it a tapering look
thank you for the tutorial, these are very helpful.

Expert talking 😂 so nice to hear

Oh no. What happened? I guess I missed a video
If you want it wider at the bottom you could add the smaller Lego leaf branches and add them to to larger ones you used.

Best video in a long time 🥳
Looking good! Thx for the tutorial and showing the parts list! 😊
awesome, i could use some of these in my winter village! Love the larger size!

This is absolutely beautiful. You're a talented artist.
I like the trees. They are really good but your right. The tall one looks a bit odd
Thank you for the video!

Staggering some green pieces up the tree would look more realistic.
You deleted your Canadian Post Rant 😡
Not surprised, the comment section was getting out of hand...
I'll stick to making lego videos. Controversial topics are not ideal haha
@@BDD_Builds truth hurts for some people 🙄
Too many posties with too much time on their hands 😂

Use white grass pieces on the top of the tree cuz the current one is just not it

I think the trunks need to be able to swivel so all the layers aren’t stacked in a column. The trees need more “movement” 😬🤍🤍🤍
Are those not bestseller pieces? Or does it take so long even for bestseller parts? For me it is aroind 2 weeks for bestseller and since i am used to having next day delivery, it is crazy long 😅
the big one is ugly to be frank. just compare it to the xmas tree nearby, like beau
ty and the beast
