I think I will try the PVA Bi carb and adhesive spray over the top.

We still need to come up with a better way to do snow. Mine still just lifts and falls away after awhile.

@PanzerIVman: It was a kind of improvised protection against the Panzerfaust during the final offensive against Berlin. Using springbeds from abandened and plundered homes the Soviet' tank crews hoped to make the Panzerfaust warheads to explode too early.

@Iamwhatiam: Looks great! Since you're from Germany, do you have the German plastic modelling magazine Modell-Fan at home? In one issue, I don't know if I still have that one at home, they hade a special on the "springbed armour" used by the Red Army in 1945.

Cheers, Morgan D

Just a point of interest.

Engine Decks & the Exhaust systems (including shrouds) tend to get a might hot, may not wanna put snow on places where it's likely to melt faster than it can accumulate.

OK I get the point snow falls off and would not stay around the above mentioned (if the tank was running). What I am looking for is a stay fast, real looking snow. Which would be great for an RC model? Or do we have to make it that real scale that I need to redo the bloody snow every time I take the thing for a spin.    Huh?
