    Thanks Andrea, for the translation.....

    Sorry Gerry, I thought that was styrofoam it was sitting on in the earlier pics. I didn't realize it was real snow..............

      It's ok Allen, the top picture is styrofoam boxes with real snow on top (plans for those in the garden) so quite close!:thumb2: Lower picture is eldest sons bike seat

        Just had a catch up Gerry, looking very good, especially in the snow!

            That's a beautiful finish Gerry!!! The only thing missing is, you know, some snow......Don't think it would drive too good on the table. Nice work on the decals and your solution came out really well too. Are you maybe planning to add a fig for it? Top job Sir!!!

              Gerry,
              That is a great result mate. As Allen say's it just needs a little snowy base to set it off.

                  Very nice finish Gerry, up to you if you want to do a base for it, but it would look good in the snow.

                    Gerry,
                    that's a real belter! Going out of your comfort zone has produced a real eye-catcher!

                      That’s excellent Gerry. As Dave says, a real eye catcher. Might be worth spending more time out of that comfort zone

                        Thanks Allen, I've a couple of figures that I'm thinking of adding when I get the base underway (which are 'extras' from a Zvezda kit)

                        Thanks Paul, the base is getting some thought - never tried snow before, but then, never tried PE before either! :smiling5:

                        Thanks Greame, base is on the cards, just not too sure when though.

                        Thanks Dave - a snow base is even further out of 'zone', but hey, I don't learn anything sitting in comfort do I? :thumb2:

                          Thanks Tim - looking like I may be out of it for a while longer!

                            The two figures that I'm thinking of adding (albeit with a few adjustments and no motorcycle/sidecar!)

                                Nice thing is that they're both 'complete' figures, (a pic of the players destructions)
