johndon Posted March 11, 2011 Author Share Posted March 11, 2011 Thanks guys, snow is bicarb of soda - for the one with the guy kneeling down, it is mixed with PVA glue into a sort of paste and then applied to the base. John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul RH Posted March 18, 2011 Share Posted March 18, 2011 Nice. I like the other pic of the bloke looking around the wall. What bark did you use for the mountian scene...fir or birch ? Excellent snow, all of it bi-carb?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like the other pic of the bloke looking around the wall. What bark did you use for the mountian scene...fir or birch ? Excellent snow, all of it bi-carb?? The bark was purchased about 10 years ago at a model railway show so I can't remember what type it is. Yes, all the snow in all the dios is bicarb.
