does any of you people recognize the probelem I face now?:

here in the Netherlands it is quitte warm at the moment, so warm it annoys me and the heat makes me tired. The weird thing is I want to finish a winter diorama but with this heat going on it gives me a strange feeling doing something with snow, I also wanted to start with an Africancampaign diorama but it's so bloody hot. It also seems that with hot wether paint and washes are not doing what they suppose to do, instead they fumble.
I was wondering if more people out there hardly do anything modelling with this terrible weather around or does it influences your dioramas in any way?
greetings,

Inspirationally - not really.
Work wise - I have to crank out the box fan. My shops in my garage and it gets to about 90 degrees F
Paint drys faster but I haven't noticed much in the way of altering the way I apply it. Glue does dry faster and sets faster too.

Invictis,

Ik know the feeling.... our climate is on hot days a very bad one to model in....the High humidity in combination with high temps are a killer when it comes to painting.

I re-entered modeling one year ago and got frustrated with painting....I felt I wasn't able to paint anymore.....until I realised it was the weather that caused it...

Hey, at least when you work on your winter dio you can "cool down" mentally from the physical heat outside.
