I'd be happy with that too, well done.

Thanks George

Made a start on the snow using Gorilla wood glue, micro balloons, Precision Ice and Snow snow and their ice wash

I shall see how it looks tomorrow night and if not too bad will take some more photos

Hi Simon
Very nicely done. The base looks good and the snow will make it even better.
Jim

 

[SimonT]

Thanks Ian

John - micro balloons are microscopic hollow spheres sold as a resin/glue filling powder. I mixed them into some wood glue to get a thick white paste to bulk up the base ready for the snow powder

Thanks Jim

Well, earlier last night I finished this one off. Painted the base black and added some final small amounts of snow on his equipment, jacket, boots, trouser bottom edges and the ammo cans

 

[Guest]

Thanks Simon,
Looks good , just enough .

 

[Steve Jones]

Spot on Mr T. Very impressive. You must be pleased with the final look

 

[SimonT]

Morning John/Steve - thanks. The snow fall on the base was a little heavier than I originally planned but I don't think it looks too bad

 

[Guest]

Fine work Simon.

 

[SimonT]

Thanks Peter

 

[Neil Merryweather]

That looks great, Simon. You must be pleased after the less than encouraging start?

 

[Jim R]

Hi Simon
That looks very good. The poor guy looks suitably frozen.
