I generated this tree with Structure Synth. It is 3 inches tall and prints ok on my Solidoodle.

Here is the structure synth code.

set maxobjects 500000
set background black
set raytracer::dof [0.26,0.02]
set raytracer::phong [0.6,0.6,0.3]
set raytracer::reflection 0.1
set raytracer::light [0,0,-29]
