Yeah,yeah,I know this looks more like Nevada than Southern Ontario in November.Maybe whats needed is some good old GWN snow!!!!! Once I finish the basic landscaping I will have to deal with this, unless I change the storyline to the evils of gambling in the desert.

I found that the sand granules at the front were too large and out of scale.So I took a very fine mesh screen(a frying pan spatter screen) and sifted the sand to a very small size.This I simply added over the large stuff and re-glued with the 75/25 water/glue mix.With a little pastel color and and colored turf builder,I think that this should look better.

New 1/48 figures for dioramas
New RAF figures for dioramas,although WW2 era they could be adapted to other eras with a little imagination.
