Making tree by hand is usually time consuming task. From your question I assume you just want to use a tree as a part of project so creating procedural tree will be much faster. You can try then procedural tree generators like:
http://www.treegenerator.com/download.htm
http://arbaro.sourceforge.net/
http://ngplant.sourceforge.net/#downloadanc
http://www.frecle.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=780
http://dryad.stanford.edu/
http://graphics.uni-konstanz.de/~luft/ivy_generator/
Some of generated trees will need conversion to *.obj file to be opened in Anim8tor.
