    Just viewed this video for the first time. I must say madam that your talents and techniques are quite impressive. It's the little things in a diorama that bring the whole scene to life and you have done well in showing how it's done.

    Excellent video. I'm from Florida and used to think your landscape and brickwork dioramas of the UK were beautiful but overly detailed. Then I started to watch Paul Whitewicke's videos on disused railway stations and Martin Zero's videos on Manchester and realized after seeing the scenery how absolutely spot on your detail work was. This snow video is another example of your prowess in the scale modeling arena....My hat is off to you!!! Keep up the great work!

      Thanks Robert. I went to New England and realised I needed to add way more trees. Until you see a place in photos or person, it’s so easy to make incorrect assumptions.

    Thank you so much, Kathy. It's the one snow project I have never attempted on a large space. I've done so on very small miniature displays, omitting much of the details. You inspire me to try it again, but with actual details. BTW, I love the hoodies you wear... awesome. Much love. ❤👍

    You're making me feel chilly - I'm not ready to let go of the warmth, yet! So glad you put in that second wavering bicycle wheel - as a year round cyclist, that is well observed! Perhaps this is what I need to spur me forward with the big hunk of Russian junk on my bench right now, that is destined for some worn & chipped whitewash effects.

    Very helpful video and nice looking result! But I wonder if the micro balloons would need to be sealed in order to fix them in place. Do they completely bond with the snow paste?

    • @KathyMillatt
      @KathyMillatt  4 года назад

      The first layer sticks but the excess will come off. I find an extra couple of layers can be added if you want more depth using clear lacquer or something similar.

      ignitedxblaze I’d probably try a few options. There are some great ones already. If they don’t appeal, I’d be tempted to try hot glue to draw out lines. Otherwise an acrylic sealer in a tube. It would be fun to try.
