Modelling Winter with Noch Snow and Ice
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 30 ก.ค. 2024
- Using the mini dioramas that we built as test pieces (check the video out here), we're testing out the range of Noch snow and ice products. There's a huge variety of products and they also come in starter kits if you just want to dabble. They do more than just snow with a couple of ice products available too.
Overall, I really liked a few of the products, powdery snow, snow paste and icicles. I also learnt a lot about how to apply them. Like everything, they need a bit of practice so I'll know what to do when I get to my larger snow and ice dioramas next year.

Love your videos Kathy! Thanks so much for trying out all these products for us and giving us such great comparisons!
It was fun to do!
Kathy, thanks for all the great tutorials from 2018. I enjoyed all of them. Looking forward to all the great ones from this year. Happy New Year.
Thanks a lot Norman.
This has been a very interesting and informative series! Thanks for sharing these techniques.
Thanks John
Happy New Years' Kathy." Ice work" love it, Cheers' John
Thanks John and Happy New Year to you too.
When hooving a layout, cover the nozzle with a ladies stocking! It still sucks up the grass/dirt but it keeps all the particles in the stocking which makes it easier to put back for reusing as well as not having to deep clean out the hoover as often. Not sure if it will work with the fine snow powder but its a life saver for grass and dirt!!!
I have my own little hoover for scenery but use tights over my big hoover nozzle if that’s what I have to hand. I’m not sure about the really fine snow powder either but I guess it would pick up most of it.
Love your work and product reviews.
Thanks!
Happy New Year. Thanks for sharing this. I'm going to have to see if I can find the icicles and try them out on a diorama. Looks like a good challenge to master a new technique.
I felt it was a challenge that I could win with a little practice!
Morning Kathy ,Happy New Years to you, Regards John
Happy New Year John
I really like the Noch products, especially their winter line up
They have great variety don’t they.
BBBRRRRR you made me feel cold with that snow and ice, so much for not being able to do it ,well done.
Thanks a lot!
Best wishes for the new year. I look forward to seeing and using the fruits of your investigations. Thanks.
It’s been fun! Thanks.
I LOVE those icecicles. Very nice.
So cool aren’t they!
Good Morning Kathy, Wishing you a belated Happy New Year. Great tutorial! Kind Regards Johnny x
Thanks Johnny. Happy New Year to you too.
Hello Kathy, Happy new Year from Germany. Thank you for this little Tutorial.
Thanks. Happy New Year.
So realistic and atmospheric, close ups on barbed wires are stunning, have to try this technique! Meanwhile, Happy New Year!
Glad you enjoyed it.
Wishing you a great 2019. I am enjoying your tutorial videos. Thank you 👍👍😎
Thanks a lot.
Very nice! Thanks for doing some of these reviews of new products or techniques.I had not heard of these materials yet, but they sure cry out for use in an armor diorama from the 1944-45 Ardennes or from Korea. Happy 2019 Kathy!
They are perfect for the winter military scene! Happy New Year too.
Hi Kathy Happy New Year, nice video may give it a try, you up for another model railway challenge this year All the Best Brian 🤗
Hi Brian, yes doing another GMRC this summer.
Thank you very much you did tell me where to start looking.
Snow and ice are so much fun to do.
Пятисотый лайк, Кэтти! ;-)
Happy New Year Kathy!
Happy New Year.
Very nice work as usual thanks for sharing
Thanks a lot.
Kathy Millatt you’re welcome 👍😃
Again, thank you for doing all these experiments. Some of the Noch products are definitely interesting. Are you planning to do a final comparison with art supplies like acrylic gel, acrylic and spray paints? I would be really interested to see how these specialized products fare against the art products given all these are some way or the other variations of common art supplies.
I tried some art supplies but didn’t really get much traction. I do use some ordinary products such as baking soda in later videos.
Thanks for sharing I'm, looking forward to trying these products... Thanks again Kat!!! Signed, your buddy 'ol pal Mr Notorious B.I.L.L...
Good luck with them.
@@KathyMillatt thanks I can't wait to try them...
really helpful~
Good!
Kathy, I would like to know where, I can get the Noch products? I would like to try some of your ideas for a diorama that, I have in mind. I just need to know where to find the Noch products. Please have a great day. Love to see your demonstrations.
Without knowing which country you are in, it's hard to recommend. I generally buy mine from Amazon though. The links are below the video.
Interesting! I‘m considering to do my layout in a winter setting, cause it would allow to build a European layout, but I could also run US engines from time to time and nobody would see the European track.
That’s really clever!
Thank for the video, a bit late, but happy new year, i really hope you will have a demonstrate video using Tamiya snow paste, Noch, and Kycell product is not very available here in the east
Tamiya snow paste is on the last video (up end of next month). The good news is that it looks good.
Nice
Thanks
Hi, Kathy. Really nice video and very well presented. I know it's not really proper to this video but do you know, or have you posted a previous video, on how to make your own pigment fixer? The commercial products are so expensive especially when I am building large dioramas (my latest WIP is over 1.5mts in length).
Cheers,
Pete
Pete, I usually just use isopropyl alcohol to fix but it depends how much you are going to handle the model. That’s not enough for model railway rolling stock.
What I'm missing from Noch that the Deluxe brand does have is 'shovelled snow'. I bet you can combine both makes though.
Your channel is so useful. I've just binged all your snow vids. I'm getting back into miniatures after a long hiatus and I'm wanting to base some in such a way that they match a gaming mat I have on order. The snow on the artwork looks more powdery than anything. Would the Noch powdered snow pair well with some PVA to make it permanent? Subbed btw!
Thanks for the sub. The Noch powdery snow would be a great choice and PVA should work well with it. If you need more depth, experiment with hair spray to hold a second layer.
@@KathyMillatt I'll give it a go, cheers! I've been looking at a UK company called Precision Ice and Snow that seem to be a dedicated snow effects place. Ordered a bag of their Krycell fine powder for £8 so will have a test with that first.
James Westwood Don’t forget to check out my video on their products that I did earlier this year.
Hi, I found this video really interesting as I am trying to choose a snow to base all my models with so thank you. I think the snow powder is by far the best effect for what I'm looking for, would a Pva spray glue be effective in your opinion? Thanks.
I use PVA for most things and it would work well here. Shake off any excess snow and you will know the snow is properly glued.
Good stuff. I think the paste is more for building up deep snow drifts than for putting snow cover on foliage. It’s meant to be put on thick and built up.
For the past episodes over the recent months I’ve noticed the audio from your lav mic (I assume) is really muddy sounding like all the high end is clipped. Is the mic or transmitter gone bad?
It’s not showing as clipped on my audio tracks. Hmm. Not sure. It did knock the auto adjust on for a while which caused some headaches but it’s all sorted now.
@@KathyMillatt The straight to camera bits (assuming using the lav mic) all sound like it's being recorded at a way lower bit rate than the voice overs on the rest of the video (which sound good).
Interesting, I'm using a Zoom H1 and I don't think I can change the settings when I record although I do choose the speed when I plug it in as an extra mic to the Mac. It's the same mic so I'll ask Professor Google whether he knows the answer.
@@KathyMillatt As a test you could try playing back the recorded files directly on the Zoom and see if they sound good or not. If they're ok, then I would assume the problem lies somewhere in your video editing software, in how it's importing or converting those audio files.
Interesting. I’ll check, thanks for the help.
Hi Kathy is there an age restriction on the great model railway challenge because I really want to take part.👌
Hi, you’ll need to check with the production company, knickerbocker glory. The details were after the shows.
Hair Spray - please can you advise on what it says on the rear label? I ask as I was undecided looking at three types in Yorkshire Trading Company last week. 1) Firm Hold 2) Extra firm Hold 3) Quick spray. The thing that made me undecided was that, on the rear label, they all said “no sticky residue” - but isn’t that what we want?! I just wondered what “style” your T***o hairspray is, and if it’s a sticky one?!
I just buy whatever’s available in the highest sounding hold I can get. I’m not sure what the sticky residue is but I guess it means no tackiness afterwards and we do want it to dry properly well.
can we remove the snow after installing the snow ?
If you don’t glue it down then you can but I’ve not tried it and I suspect you’ll need a hoover.
Noch glue and noch punder works well Also?
Yes, I’ve used that combo.
How about gypsum powder or even salt?.
Either could work. Have an experiment and let us know!
So what would you recommend? Noch or Krycell?
The one I’d use is in a later video I’m afraid!
@@KathyMillatt ok cool. I look forward to the next video. Thanks for the reply. Great video as always btw.
