Looks fantastic as always!
What did you do for the snow effect on the bases?

Hi! Thank you! The snow effect is:
vinavil plus white paint plus bicarbonate plus a little drop of water! For Gaming minis, this is the best way! Cheap replaceable and fast! The white assures that the bicarbonate will not become yellowish and you can achieve different types of snow (fresh, old, compact or not) only changing the amount of the components! Hope it can help!

Drop bicarbonate, use microballoons. No yellowing ever, they are tiny glass spheres.

But comes at higher price they are not suitable to play and are harmful if inhaled

I use them but not when I do a big amount of gaming models and after 6 years no yellow is present!

Inhaling bicarbonate is healthy?

And price... just checked... less than 5 euro for a Kg.

The LD/50 for Bicarbonate of Soda in rats is 4220 mg/kg. You should be okay

It's about the particles in the lungs.

ahahhah obviously if you se like cocaine no

Nut the microspheres are highly volatile, or at least the prochima one, that is the best one on the market! And remains the main issue: for almost the same effect (on the tabletop you can't distinuish them) the bicarbonate mix will endure far more the rough hands of hard players during an hard match
