Quoted from ZooDude:Thanks, yeah I made this tree, I've been designing and building Zoo exhibits and doing naturalistic sculpture all my life, this one is in the Conservatory of Flowers in San Francisco but my work is all over the world.
For smaller projects like yours I'd use armature wire, spiderLath, carvable spray foam, foam hardener and sculpting epoxy. Sounds like a lot but you should be able to track down everything at an industrial art supply house.
I'm in meetings today and tomorrow (someone broke into a Bald Eagle exhibit I did and I have to figure out how to repair it!) but will work up a basic protocol for you and DM you as soon as I have a chance. Look into armature wire (for sculpting) as that would be the first step, super easy to manipulate and will hold the shape you need.
I'll get something written up for you as soon as I can. Really cool build, very impressed with your work.
