Just a couple of months now before the layout departs for pastures new, and some of the stock too. So thoughts are turning to a cameo or quickie layout set in early 70's Scotland.

 

Or 50's Wrexham area....or 1912 Cambrian.....or S scale BR (s)....or 3mm WR....

Decisions, decisions!

Cheers Peter! 

 

Lost the modelling mojo over winter,but currently working on some ex LNER stock.

 

Can get away with a lot of Modellers Licence with NE Wales, and I am also loath to part with some of the ex Kinmundy locomotives and rolling stock, when a small unobtrusive layout could be set up in the house! (and you've seen the size of the house too....) 

 

Hope things are progressing well with Ilkley too......

I've looked through most of this thread, but I couldn't see any mention of how the frosty effect was created? 

 

The "frosty morning" look is super effective, and I think much better than the typical "winter wonderland" deep snow effect you more often see. 

 

Was it just white paint? Or one of the commercial snow/frost effect products?

Hi

 

The effect was created by using commercially available white primer rattle can spray paint applied from approx 18-24 inches away, from below baseboard/scenery level and allowed to gently settle as pictured.

 

Frosty effect was cheap 'card glitter kit' carefully applied to give the prismatic effect
