I've been following your work since the start. This is some great work! Love how the island turned out and all the details you captured. I've had problems accessing the site and being able to log in for the last few months so haven't been able to post comments. Looking forward to seeing more!

[quote="Jon C Ryckert" ice work. Would you please tell me what UV resin you prefer to use? Thanks[/quote]
Green stuff world clear UV RESIN. It 's a clear resin in a Black bottle that you place on a model in thin layers and then you harden it with UV light. And that's it

But maybe it needs to be done from the rear of the PE window frames? Thanks for your kind comment Unfortunately it's impossible to reach the 3 structures so...masking tape would be my friend...

Nice work. There seem to be a lot of clearparts, wouldn't it be easier to work with Micro Crystal Clear?
