Title: SEGOM shadowbox huntung the wolf
Post by: Michael_43 on January 29, 2015, 08:37:21 AM

Hallo friends of flats,

today I´ll show you after fighting with the real snow my last winter-diorama with artifical snow.
It´s in a SEGOM shadowbox with a wolf hunting in the middle ages.

I useed SNOW Crystals 61164 from Noch (model railway). It´s creamy like the Michael Harding
oil colors. There a different ways to make arificial snow like spray or powder. What do you prefer ?

The next steps are a light with SMD´s and  a 9-V-battery-box, a passpartout and a frame.

I only paint for fun and not for a competition. The real clothes in the middle ages are not so colorful...

Best regards

Michael

very nice.

For snow, I use a form of White marble dust. It twinkles as light hits it, very realistic.
