The snow begins with a layer of flex paste to bulk out the snow. You can see this in one of my basing posts.
Once the flex paste is dry, I paint it with blueish greys... almost like it is a glacier.
Then using white elmer's glue, I glue on a layer of snow flock from woodland scenics. As you can see, it is transperent enouh to show the painted colors on the flex paste, and yet still give a fluffy snow texture. When the light hits it a certain way, you even get a bit of that same glitter effect :-)
The snow on the bases looks incredible. Any chance I could get an explanation/tutorial on your process?
