where do you get all your supplies for your diorama

[epicfantasy]

@steelersrock444 amazon, company called woodland scenics makes a lot of this stuff for good diorama terrain and scenery

I'm having some trouble with the trees. Whenever I add the hob-e-tak, I wait 15 minutes, like you said, but then the foliage starts to fall off of the trees. any tips?

[epicfantasy]

@kittyhello4 hmmm, not sure why you are having difficulty with the hobetac.Maybe try a different type of contact cement. Or, is the foliage in the bag in clumps that are too large? There is definitely some practice involved. You may have to just keep at it!

@epicfantasy what could I use for a snowy texture? I have some trees from a village set I used to put up but what for the ground?

[epicfantasy]

@Xythe43 baby powder or plaster of paris works pretty good. You can also buy snow from a company called Woodland Scenics. They have it on amazon.

@themintgamer Hard to say but some natural materials are excellent for diorama making> Typically you let the stuff dry out for a while. Twigs are great, dirt/soil can be good, pebbles good, grass not so good because it dries out.

@epicfantasy Thanks! Yeah, I think the clumps may have been a bit too big, but I was using the hob-e-tac used in the video.
