Love it Chuck. That's some great stuff.

Are you thinking about including some light snow too?

We could try this?

Here are some photos from Holman Mountain on the Allagash Androscoggin Sub. This was probably the most difficult scenery endeavor I’ve undertaken to date. The process of laying out long stretches of melting snow (compressed and carved white styrofoam) on the side of a mountain, getting it to stay put and then planting a gazzilion trees into it was not part of my original plan here, but I couldn’t resist the challenge to at least try to make it work. Holman Summit is the highest spot on the railroad, and naturally there would be more remnants of winter here, even in April. It was the only place I could try this, so I gave it a go.I'm fairly satisfied with the finished result. More details to add, but it's 99% there.

Might be too much, he is using it for long term snow, a dusting of white grout?

Ok. This is the first go of an actual printed backdrop.

I think I need to scale it down and darken it up just a touch.

Thoughts?
