Hello Everybody,

Here are som update pictures of my winter airport diorama in scale 1:500. I have modified the terminal buildings with wood trim to get rid of the flat surface and make them a little more 3 dimensional.

yup, what material and how did you "dust" your diorama?

also, how did you make the roof of the entrances? shown on the fourth picture.

The snow is just white paint with som glitter finish. The structure underneath is fibergrass and glue.

I used matt white spray paint to dust the glossy finish. The entrance roof is made of the same plastic as the other roofs. I just cut it in smaller pats.

Here are some more close up pictures. You will find more pictures in older threads on this forum.

Right now I'm working on a new project. I just orderd a bunch of buildings from "Airport Design" in England. I will post pictures from this project as soon there is something to show.
