I like the snow effects. It always adds a sense of atmosphere for people like me. I did not see snow until I was 17 and then not again until I was 25.

Have you not heard the expression 'as cold as a mother in law's smile'. Think back - you have experienced the cold!

Wayne ,
I am used to the stuff, we experience it almost every winter. This year we had another 20 inches of snow in the Ardennes. A little bit less near the coastal area where I live .

Nice work again Wayne. Love the Dept 56 trees. Love the smoke and the fire ball inside the smoke. Great figures.

Great work.

OR .. come to the state of Maine. Most years we get 100 - 120 inches per season.{sm2}

Two years ago we actually had tunnels to and from the garage and into some stores. Hundreds of roofs collapsed. Every year I say to the wife, “Most snow we had in ages, d@rn stuff will never melt.” But it generally gets around to it by end of April.

That is a fantastic dio.
Almost to real as you can sense the tragedy of those tankers laying in the cold snow. That smoke is wonderful, the whole scene is. Thanks!! --- Larry

Appreciate all the comments gents ! The burning fire inside of the smoke worked out great. No power cord attached either !!!

How did you do it. I used a sharpee marker for cannon blast but it did not look that good. Also, how do you blacken. I use cigarette ashes. However I do not smoke.
