Thanks Jim, yes indeed, need to practice with that snow in getting the amount of powder down on the hair spray. Is that the method you used ?

Whenever you are ready to bring those snow building talents across the pond to assist me in finishing my dio the proper arrangements will be made. I thoroughly enjoy watching all of your dios and builds come to life..and wether it’s a building,,,,or some of the elements like snow ❄️, or fire or battle damage...the thought process that you put into the making is Mind boggling..every little detail just pops up to life and adds the realism of the scene. Top shelf work...this one is book marked on my lap top. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Hi John
The thing I find about being with a group of like-minded people is it pushes you on, to try things that maybe you wouldn't do
When other people see your work at home they might say that's nice etc , but they don't know the effort or skill that only a fellow modeller can reconise and see .

I've made some real friends on this and the old forum and would just like to say a big thank you

That is just how I feel about being part of the forum.

Thank you Joe for the very kind comments . I'm quite sure you will be able to finish your build with out any help from me, but kind of you to say. As for coming over I think you have some real snow, which I do not want to meet up with , thank you .:smiling2:.

Really terrific snow John! Makes me feel like I'm out in it. By the way, if you used your new phone for the photos, how come they aren't upside down?:tongue-out2:
Cheers, Rick H.
