Snow and sanatorium
« on: January 03, 2008, 09:32:02 AM »
Hello,
We'd like to make a table of play for the battle of Stoumon in 1944.

The first problem we meet is to make snow. We don't know how ro make it, so I call for your help if you know a technic and the materials you use.

The second is that my mission is to rebuild the sanatoirum of Stoumont and the pb is that the few photos I find are too far and I'd like to know if you can send me photos or link.

Thanks for your help and happy new year :)

I think the snow stuff is a scatter much like static grass, I havent used it yet but looks more suited for figure bases than table tops.

Some manufacturers of model railroad materials have some paste-like stuff that is very similar to plaster.

If You do not want to transport Your scenery a lot, I have made very good experiences with snow powder by GW. In order to cut down expenses, I simply mixed in some baking soda. The mixture was then sieved on the terrain that has been built and completely coloured beforehand. The glue I used was spray glue used for model railroad scenery.

Have a look here:
