Dave. The snow scene you have created looks like Bryce Canyon National Park Utah Red Rocks, winter scene photo., This looks amazing, your red rocks look stellar !! Conifers look good also. Can't wait to see the foreground town you are creating. Great tips on snow making !! Thanks for sharing your inspirational vision !!.
That looks so great. The color reminds me of frosted gingerbread yum yum. Will have to write down that recipe for snow I like how it looks on your layout. Looking forward to part 4 of this build. GOD BLESS 🚂💖🎄💖🚂💖🎄💖
wow! Can't put into words how much I think your layout is fantastic, I just started my N gauge railway and want to do the southwest theme like yours, but have absolutely no idea how to do it, I have been watching a lot of RUclips channels and I've been purchasing the tools I think I will need. But still did not have any idea how to do it, just came across your channel and I am in heaven, it's like that is exactly what I want my layout to look like, (but it wont be close)I do a lot of trail riding here in Arizona and I go up to Sedona and I love the rock formations haven't made it MOAB yet. so now I will be able to look how you carved your rock formations and give it a go, my 12 year old grandson rides his bike over to my house quite often as he only lives five blocks away so he's all excited to help me.
The baking soda isn't a good idea with anything but the dryer climates, even with paint mixed in, I've had a lot of issues using it for snow with older things because it will yellow if there is any moisture in the air which is not good at all for anything you'll have for a while.
Thank you for such a practical and detailed series on how to build something like this. I love all your videos and now, as a beginner, I feel like I can actually follow along and do it too. Any chance you could do a video or a series on the best "basics" set of tools and materials you recommend? You have so much great stuff but I have to imagine there is a core set that would be less overwhelming for a newbie :)
What a great way to make snow!! I think I will give it a try and make a diorama with it! This would also work very well for a blizzard driven snow effect!! Thanks for the ideas and the video!
Wow, so cool Dave. Thanks very much for sharing this snowy wonderland with us. Love the simplicity of the ingredients. The layout is looking awesome so far.
The fake snow looks great, and the application is realistic. Do you find a need to varnish the snow to make it easier to clean and dust? I find that white "stuff" and acrylic paint is like a magnet to dust and fine dirt.
You're renting your studio, right? Are you worried at all about paint dripping down onto that hardwood floor? One reason why I've hesitated to paint my layout is because I'm renting and I don't want to deal with the hassle of prepping the floor to catch paint drips. Is that not as much of a problem with vinyl paint? Or are you just that good at this point? 😉
The floor had a lot of paint on it already when I moved in, but I still try to be careful and clean up as I go. Cardboard and drop cloths work wonders.
My apologies for the lack of a recent update. I've been having some computer issues. Things should be back on track with the next episode of the Santa Fe & Saint Nick RR build very soon and the entire project will still be completed before Christmas! Thank you for your patience! Dave
Im jonesing for another freakin episode!
It's on the way! I'm a little behind schedule at the moment but all will be done before Christmas.
You are the Bob Ross of model RR scenery
Always interesting and creative...Happy Holidays.........................>
Awesome job Dave! Funny how adding white can change the feeling of a warm climate into a cold one.
Who would've thought, a jazz version of jingle bells, model railroading, and high desert scenery would mesh so well!! Great vid Dave!
nice
Dave, the snow mixture reminds me of frosting a cake. Soooo cooool….😊
It was a lot like frosting a cake!

Whatever you do, DON'T EAT IT! Trust me on this, and please don't ask me why I know, but I can tell you that stuff will not set well in your stomach.

A great layout, great tutorial and a great series. Nice change of pace. Thank you for your hard work and effort!
Great looking scenery. Almost a pity to cover it with snow, but I guess that's the purpose of the layout.
As Santa says... Ho Ho Snow. 🤪

Dave, I've seen many different "snow' scenes in My time but, this is the easiest and looks great. TYVM. Jim
Thank you!
It looks like Bev Doolittle used your model for her paintings period. Very nice!
Fantastic job this layout and great explanation. Best regards👍👍👍
Loving this!
Beautifully done. Often wondered if there was a way to make a home-made version of snow. Thanks for sharing.
Cool stuff, Dave!
Looks good enough to eat. ;)

So simple, yet so effective - Nice!

Should put a little snow on the train cars as well

You've done a Halloween layout and a Christmas layout... What are your plans for Easter? 😄
I'll probably resurrect something

Been two weeks! Has there been an issue with the following episodes???

@@ThunderMesaStudio Sorry to hear about the difficulties. I'm just really excited about your content and wondered what happened.
Yummy 🤤
