How to make a simple winter base or terrain for your scale models to help bring them to life. This video covers the materials you will need and the techniques to apply to make a realistic, yet easy to create, snow-covered landscape.
AK Interactive provided me with these snow effect products for free, however they have not paid me or told me what to do or say. My opinions are honest and my own.

we see all these pro modellers using special tools and materials and you just use simple house hold items and it looks just as good.

Like spaghetti for example

@Rex227c1 6 лет назад

Hello quick kits I wish to say thank you ,a few weeks ago I crashed my truck and it meant so much to me ,it was the only reliable thing in my life ,your videos inspired me to make my own model of the truck before the wreck ,since the model is no longer available I plan on making a vacuum form version of the truck after the crash ,thank you for inspiring me to fight my deamons in the form of building models ,the truck was a Ford F-250 from 1997 ,thank you for all you do and inspiring model builders to come up with new ideas and for helping me cope with the loss of my castel and my only freedom Edit (If it wasn't for it being a steel body I would not be here ,I walked away with no injury)

Plz come back to RU-vid! You helped me so my h on my models thanks but I'd like some more tips and awesome videos thanks for everything! :)

@norwegianscale4780 6 лет назад

Great! I usually make snow from PVA glue and baking soda. It's a really easy and cheap technique :)

@nimay13 5 лет назад

Late to the party but I just have the utmost respect for you. Lots of other modeller uses specialized materials, you OTOH just used simple material. Good job. I hope you make more videos.

@kerrywilcoxon9584 6 лет назад

Awesome base for your tank and a great way to get rid of all those old CDs around the house.

@krisskoda9136 6 лет назад

hmm i think the spaghetti is a good idea but it would be too brittle and would snap you should try using a sprew from models

@Mishn0 6 лет назад

I'd be a little afraid of it attracting mice or bugs too. That's why I'd never consider using flour for snow.

@TheEnarjayzat 5 лет назад

Nice idea! :) I think you should use cooked spaghetti- it’s curvy and FUN!

@Endeva09 5 лет назад

I used to have probably about 5-6 models when I was a kid, if I remember correctly I had one helicopter, one tank and some planes, I don’t remember exactly what models they were but I do know I miss them now they are gone, I stumbled across your channel somehow and I’ve just bought an airfix harrier starter kit and I can’t wait to give it a go again, I’m 32! Your channel is amazing Thankyou for the great content and advice and for jogging my memories

@RahulSengupta07 6 лет назад

excellent diorama made out of household items ,,, btw i would use a Sprue or a thin pen or fat gelpen refill then scratch and paint it to make a wooden telegraph pole look also some thin copper wire to make the telegraph wire ! :)

@KitKabinet 6 лет назад

Although I like the effect that was achieved with the spaghetti telegraph pole, I'd personally refrain from using foodstuff/perishables on diorama's and bases. I myself at a time used to use salt and sugar to simulate sand and gravel respectively, but that gave some annoying results with changing humidity (sometimes already a couple of months later). However, I have also seen baking soda used to great effect to simulate snow, so apparently some materials from the kitchen would work quite well.

@uerur8683 6 лет назад

@philRminiatures 5 лет назад

@grabthepencil1 2 года назад

What did he use for the snow? Is that fake snow?

@maximilianoz.5777 6 лет назад

The pasta seems like a good idea, but it's too fragile and suscetible to humidity. The inside plastic thingy from an old pen (or new, pens are not expensive), could've work the same and does not break easily.

@brucethemodelnoob 6 лет назад

Great vid and love the channel. The CD is a cool idea for the base, but there are other less-brittle things you could use for the pole. In the real world a capable tank driver would never drive onto railway tracks like that... It's a sure way to throw a track.

@neillscollick6835 6 лет назад

Great and informative video,as always. With the track ballast I'd use either OO or HO scale ballast, which no doubt you could borrow from a friend into model railways, as perhaps you could with the telegraph pole and if not they're only £4 for a pack of 16 on the web. The position of the STUG should however be hull down, and behind the railway line, using the railway line as cover, as it would have been in a real life combat situation. You could also make the diorama base a bit larger and include some MG positions and foxholes for the troops protecting the STUG from infantry attack.

@MrMoosModels 6 лет назад

That is an awesome looking duo Owen. Interesting use of the spaghetti, I would be worried that it would be fragile and easily snapped compared to some thin alloy rod or plastic rod or even a bamboo skewer. Anyway it has worked for you and looks great.

@ModelMinutes 6 лет назад

Simple and looks good - wouldn't have known that you used spaghetti - looks convincing! It wouldn't survive in my house though, so i'd probably use an old hornby telegraph pole or a bit of wire instead
