I stacked them to give them some height (too much?) painted them blue gray on top and a bright blue on the sides(based on some real life glaciers I saw on my cruise to Alaska) I then added some snow flock. I think they came out well for a spur of the moment scratch build. They are perhaps a little out of scale with the 1/2400 Scharnhorst class battle cruiser but they need to model the "foot print" under the water too.
Mostly this Blog will cover my current war game activities along with some reenacting items as time goes by.

Icebergs for Naval War Gaming
My friend Frank asked if I had any terrain that would work as icebergs for this Thursdays "Trafalgar Day" war game. I said no but that I could whip some up. I took some foam corp scraps and shaped them with a knife and scissors.
