                        Domi made a mistake in typing my earlier reply it was baking soda not powder we used for the snow. Eric it is the combination of the baking soda and hair spray that give it the shine. I did several dustings of baking soda and in between each one I used the hair spray, and then again of course on top of the last dusting. The brand does not really matter as long it is the super or strong hold stuff.

                        Thanks Tena

                        Tena, I have to ask this. Is the hairspray what gave the "shine" to the snow on your dio?? It really does look like frozen snow, just the right shine and sheen so I was wondering if the hairspray did that? Any recommendations on brands? Big Smile [:D]

                        I applied a light coat of strong hair spray, from about 20cms away, then some baking powder through a tea strainer. I repeated this operation up until I felt I had enough snow. There was only a minimum amount of baking powder flying off everywhere, but I did that job outside, to be on the safe side... Evil [}:)]

                        Question?

                        When 'glueing' the snow/baking powder using hair spray did the force of the hairspray coming out of the can send snow/baking powder everywhere? Or did you spray from a safe distance? Great idea though!!

                        Sorry Tina ... no criticisms coming from me either.

                        Ok .... maybe one ...... this really looks like it could be right out my back door today. It reminds me of just how cold it is.

                        I think you've done a great job on this dio. Very desolate, lonely feel to it.

                        Thanks for sharing !!!

                        Outstanding job Tena! You did excellent work. I also felt the chill from all that snow. It almost looks like something out od the Battle of the Bulge, where alot of equipment got lost. Maybe the crew bugged out with their gun from a battle and are holed up in the house. Obviously they didn't have a chance to come out and clean last night's snow off before moving on.


                        Wow! What a family! All three excellent modelers! I'm so jealous!

                        I'm getting cold just looking at it!
                        You've created a very cold and forlorn scene. The tank must have been destroyed or abandoned, right? There's so much snow on it and in it, I'm guessing it hasn't been used for a while.
                        Great dio!

                        Tena, IF I could find anything wrong with it I'd let you know, regardless of your age! I think you need to go to the next show with your folks and enter that dio. I think it would do quite well! I seriously can't see a thing wrong with it!

                        Wow, Excellent job Tena! And to echo latch66, what did you use for the snow? I was reaching for my jacket after looking at it for a minute!

                        There's a new fix for Shermanfreak too, he always says if you mess something up put some mud or a tarp on it. Well now he can use snow too!! Big Smile [:D] (I"m not implying you messed it up Tena! Wink [;)] )

                        Tena's tank has been finished for a while now, but Domi forgot to post it so he asked me to do it for Tena. As her mum, I must say I was quite proud of her.Big Smile [:D]
