Slide of the Month Extra - Philmont winter




February 2020

Time to make: 2 hours

Finishing: 2 hour

Original design: Bill Macfarlane






It never occurred to me that Philmont has a winter program! Here is a great video on the program.

Carved from southern yellow pine, this another adaptation from a Philmont patch having many levels. The levels from top to bottom are the buffalo, the mountain, snow, sky and outside ring. I painted the slide with hobby paints, the lettering and snowflake were done with water slide paper, and I finished it off with a couple coats of poly. BUT...I forgot the water around the buffalo's feet so I used a paint pen to create the water after the slide was finished.
