There are no shortage of tutorials for making these classic giant cacti for your oldhammer 40k board. Mine are pretty rough and ready, and were very quick to make. I cut a little flat spot on each of these of polystyrene balls (cheap from the craft shop after Christmas). Then I speared them liberally with cocktail sticks, sometimes using the sticks to join a small one to a big one. Then I sprayed them with Army Painter Army Green spray. The spray ate into the polystyrene a little, but I think this is OK and it's given the cacti some texture. Then I sponged them with a little Averland Sunset paint, with scraps from a washing up sponge. Lastly, I painted the spines with Wild Rider Red. Done!
