Unlike our Nordic neighbors Denmark is not a great skiing nation and usually enthusiasts will have to travel abroad to enjoy the thrills of winter sports. I have painted these figures from Preiser set 16347 in ski-wear from my model railroad era which is the 1950s. That was before synthetics became widespread and ski-wear was still mainly made from natural materials such as heavy wool and gabardine. Zippers were the newest innovation. Two-piece outfits seems to have been most popular at the time and although the color palette mirrored the somber dress of the era (browns, greys and greens) some reds and brighter blue colors snug in as decorations on socks, mittens and snowflake sweaters. The skies were of course all made of wood. Please visit my blog (mostly in Danish) for more on my planned layout.
