Best material for diorama Ice?
Another method might be with UV resin. Spread a thin sheet on wax paper (or parchment paper) and set with a UV light. Then peel off and break up to taste. John- wotan

John Having to organise financial affairs on top of the emotional trauma is a double whammy. Pleased you have navigated your way through the practical parts of it. My thoughts are with you and I am delighted to see you back to landscaping. Looking forward to some incendiary modelling. John- wotan

How to paint "white metal" figures?
I have painted a lot of metal figures from way back when 25mm wargaming figures were always white metal. (minifigs for example) you can paint them just as you have suggested, prime and paint. Acrylic paints are fine. John- wotan

Brave New World - Epoxy Resin U Boat Dio
Peter Looking very neat. To create a wave effect I would suggest that you use a layer of Modpodge on top of the resin and use an air brush to push it around into wavey shapes. Just use the airbrush empty and allow the simple airflow to create the waves. John- wotan

Brian's Sovereign of the seas
Brian I know you had some fit problems earlier in the build but looking at where the chains and the deadeyes will be fitted I wonder if some of the guns are going to interfere with where the channels are fitted. John- wotan

Brian Great job. You have retained the beautiful wood finish but the white hull really sets off the black, gold and wood surfaces. John- wotan

Brian's Sovereign of the seas
Amazing decorations. Now that you have almost done the hull I get the impression that painting the lower hull white would really enhance the the look. This even though I think the wood finish looks great I wonder if white would just lift the appearance. John- wotan
