Hi all 24 hrs have now past and its a snow day, before adding the snow i've did some more work around the structure i have added more splintered wood and a few oil drums to the mix now these were all fixed with P.V.A glueand given 2 houres to dry. Now it's time for the snow i have mixed a thicker mix of water and P.V.A. glue and applied it to all the raised areas first i have used botteled snow from the local hobby shop, this is shaken on until i have a good coverage of all of the raised areas and with the palm of myhand it is pressed into the glue.

I have applied the snow in generous amounts once dry the excess can be blown off and another coat applied if needed this will need another 24hrs to dry, so i will see how it looks tomorrow and add more if required.

Hi Gern thanks for the praise first of all i appreciate it, the base size is about 65cm long by 45cm wide it is fairly large by my standards as i have said this is a first attempt so iam not sure.

Hey Scott, just how much better can this get. I did notice that you painted all the ground with varnish and thought it looked a bit too shiney. I'm glad i kept my mouth shut cause now i realise that this was to give the effect of ice on the ground. All i can say is WOW mate.

Well done, you can be sure that i will keep watching this one mate.

I've been off line with a broken modem so I havn't been able to get on line until now ( on my shop computer)

Now then Scott, what a transformation from the last time I viewed this diorama....It is quite superb, never mind a first effort this would grace any so called 'experts' table.

I suspect that you are really enjoying this build....I know everyone else is!!

Don't panic Mr. Mannerin'!!!!

:bravo:

I'm insanely jealous!

How is it that you can take a couple of kits, half a dozen figures and a handful of oddments and throw them together to make such a wonderful scene?

I don't think I could produce such quality work if I spent the rest of my life doing nothing but practise and develop my skills - but I'm surely gonna try!

This is something special. Very well done on one !st class diorama.

All you diorama wallas out there, look out, this is yer main man!!

Scott, you must be well chuffed with the end result and rightly so.

Once again, my mate. Well done.:emo1:

Gern this is just to say a very big thank you for the very high praise which i really don't deserve. If you want my secret to this it is all about the planning. If i can produce this then anyone can, i would like to thank you again for the praise and for viewing the build.

Hi Ron this is to say a big thanks for the very high praise and for sticking with the build i certainly wasn't expecting this, but yes i feel that it's worked out ok although my figures will never win any prizes they are a little better, thanks again mate.
