Quoted Text:D I don’t disagree, I am sure it makes some happy. Thanks for the information, that was my guess on the tools. Keep up the great work.
Hi Ryan,
Thank you for the positive feedback,.
Have you rediscovered your modelling mojo yet,
Cheers,
G
Yes, I have started building again HB Leopard and Revell Man 5t for two campaigns here while I sort out the paint barn to get those other projects closer to completion.
I do like your progress so far.

Hi Ryan,
Thanks, and glad to hear you're back in the saddle,
What's the 'paint barn'?
Cheers,
G
The “paint barn” is my shelf of doom either because I haven’t painted the kit or that I have painted the kit.
For whatever reason painting/airbrushing is not my favorite part of the hobby.
.,Love your armor work G , you do some beautiful , believable vehicles !!
.,,
Oh G are you SURE you want to put this beauty into a winter scene? The layers & subtleties you’ve now achieved, and that’s without any dirtying…I dunno whether I could bear to watch you chuck whitewash over it. Well, I guess you can always replicate it on the next one too, but I’ll just be peeking through closed fingers for a while
. As for chucking whitewash over it, it'll help hide the bad bits,

Hi Ryan,
Having seen a couple of your builds you manage to hide the fact that painting isn't your favourite part very well behind some excellent finished work,
Cheers,

I would use the hairspray technique for the white wash. You can control how and where you want the white to still be.
,Why being always so degoratory about your work? I think you are a great modeller with excellent skills in armor and landscaping. I am sure you'll manage to perform excellent results on your figs too!!! Love the results thus far. No have never done any winter white wash.
If you PM me your mail address, I can send you a PDF of the Weathering Magazine about snow and ice? It is 43MB, so to big for e-mail, so I'll Wetransfer it to you...
.,. It also needs a clean-up, think I need to let the hairspray dry a tad longer as it seemed to 'flake' a bit when I tried removing the 'whitewash',

That is some seriously beautiful weathering on that Churchy !!

No I scavenged the fig from a Tamiya halftrack. Now comes the worst part: It didn't fit in the cab! The lack of scale correctnes led to the fact the half the head of the figure was above the cab window! I was rather dismayed when I found this out. I removed the whole lower body to get him to fit. I hope it doesn't show too much when closed up!

.,I agree - gorgeous work indeed! It looks just right; it would be a shame to obscure it under any more whitewash.
It sounds like you have figured out your scale snow solution...but if it doesn't work out, I have had good luck with baking soda/water/white glue.
... Plus, one or two people mentioned about it yellowing over time...how do you avoid that?,I have used baking soda in the past as well but it has a tendency to yellow over time.
