Hii everyone i want to make good looking snow diorama but i don't know how to make snow and plz give me some clues about that!! And in the snow dio what about the figures and their clothes how do i make weathering (the colours of the weathering i mean).

Thanks for your helps!!!

My favorite snow is Sweet N'Low the artificial sweetener. It does not yellow, looks great, is cheap and being artificial does not attract bugs

Apply it by painting a water/white glue mixture in the areas I want covered and simply sprinkling it on. After it dries, I use my air compressor, blow off he excess, and then add more if it needs it. For large snowdrifts, I first use Durham’s water putty to build up the drift and sprinkle on the Sweet N’ Low while it is still wet.

As far as weathering the troops, lightly Dry brushing with white goes a long way. But remember bootsand lower pant leg getmust ofthe contact, unles it is actaully snowing. do not drybrush everthing white.

I picked up a bottle of "Soft Flake Snow" from Woodland Scenics (SN140). It looks neat in the bottle, but I haven't tried it yet. Has anybody else tried this stuff? I have also heard of people using plaster for thick snow, and poly beads (whatever those are)

Hope this helps

I'm only on for a few minutes so I can't answer in length

Go to the top right Search feature and type in SNOW and you will find a LOT of great stuff.
Also look at the Features section and Look for Distraction by Faust.

I saw a great tank diorama (can't recall where), but the builder had used baking soda as the snow...he even had it "caked" between the treads of the tank's track--it looked very, very realistic!

Welcome Obi

what ive done before, i mix water and glueand sprinkle talcum powder or white chalk, after dried, use ur brush to the area you dont want to cover with snow

I use baking soda sprinkle over a layer of PVA glue mix with water (50%)
For the hard snow fix his w/ lack (i use hair sparay)

I use baking soda too...

I use spray adhesive, spray it to the surface, and sprinkle the baking soda...Another coat of spray adhesive, and a final coat of Mr. Flat Coat...

Good Luck!

Heyy thanks a lot to everyone!! But what about the color?
