            JR, What material did you use for the swimming hole? It gives the illusion of depth but does not look that deep. Great result.
            Cheers, Rick H.

              Hi Rick, thanks, all I did was create a hole in the ply, If you look at the earlier photos you will see what I did . The method is simple
              Add dark paints and you get a sence of depth.

                John , that's looking really great! I hope you don't go too mad with the snow -it would be a shame to cover it all up. I especially like the way you show how the panzer has broken the river banks and slid down the mud into the water. :thumb2:
                After my own adventures with water I was looking forward to see what you have up your sleeve, but now I see it's going to be ice - of course, doh!
                Somehow I've missed the info- what is the ice stuff you're planning to use?
                cheers
                Neil

                  Hi Neil, thank you for your kind comments. The ice and snow are from Precision Ice and Snow . The ice is a broken version, though I have ordered some plain ice as well . All bought from John at the shop.
                  John .

                                Bob... thank you very much.

                                Nothing happening at the moment on the dio, once the tanks and figures are done and "welded " to the base the snow will arrive. Neil has asked earlier if was going to cover the whole dio, well I think it need a fair covering as the ice would have meant there was ground frost, but I still want to show the water where the ice has just broken. Don't think it would take long in those low temperatures to refreeze
