Incredible certainly one of the best looking tables I have seen. Captures winter war perfectly.

Wow stunning work it all fits beautifully
Where are the trees from or how did you make them?  In particular the ones on the graveyard?

Hi Mac
The trees are made of privet/hedge and the branches are drilled for sea grass inserts,when painted they are sprayed a few times with watered down PVA/unibond/white wood glue ,they are a bit delicate in the wrong hands.

Cheers AL

Love it all!  :-*

Very inspiring and, at the same time, disheartening for my own Ardennes project  lol

Great to notice all the small details, like the icicles etc, they do enhance the feel a great deal.

The river and the road network are static? All the rest can be moved around for different set-up?

Any chance for more pics with close-ups? Any special snow recipe to share with us?

I remember you posting some of the vehicles seen earlier, it made me also get everything in 1:48 rather than 1:56 :) Did you stay on that path? Oh, and tips about the whitewashing tanks?

Hi the road and river are sections I have more that on the table so lots of options with straights 90 degree 45 degree etc in both sizes.the snow on the river edges is sand.

Everything lifts off the cloth.

Snow is either sand painted white , cans of white acrylic car primer,woodland scenics snow scatter.

Yes 1/48th
