Thanks.

I just did a test of using baking soda for snow bases. White glue holds it on well enough, but damn is it messy brushing off the excess. I used the recent Marvel Heroclix Wendigo for the figs [they still have the factory paint jobs]. The 2nd from the left had cheap craft snow to see if that worked better.

The red blood & flesh chunks was red ink, & aleens clear glue that was getting goopy [thus the chunks.

Very Gruesome Frank... Very gruesome.

Keep us posted on the snow effects. I love the look of snow on bases, but I haven't perfected the techniques. Mine always ending up looking like dirty white sand, no matter what I do.

Game ON!

hotglue flattened with hotgluegun nozzel to make an uneven but smoothish field.

painted white with cheap paint

painted the white with white glue, touching some parts of the mini to make snow clumps on the fig.

poured baking soda over glue

let dry

brushed away excess baking soda.

Applied fake blood, shaping the lumps to look like meat chunks.

I have a hard time finding snow effects that I like... Jennifer Haley does some great ones, but the stuff she uses is a heavy duty carcenogen (Causes cancer = baaaad)...

Have you tried the Games Workshop Snow Flock? I bought a tub, but have yet to try it.
