I have written a brief tutorial on snow basing over on my blog, please check it out if you have time.

http://leontheconfused.blogspot.com/2010/11/snow-basing.html

It is the first tutorial I have written and would really like some feedback so I can make them better.

cool, i'm thinking of snowbasing everything i'v got as it really makes the paint job look awesome

Nice tutorial!

Really cool bases!

I must say that they really do look amazing! Tempting for my next snow marines...

Thanks guys.

I was originally asked to write the tutorial for a friend who is about to start painting a Khador army.

Thats how I found this, I feel the snow will work really well with the red. Thank you!

Nice tutorial, though the pictures don't really show the final texture of the snow. That's the big thing I've found about doing snowy scenery, getting a good texture that won't blow away (some snow products look great if you just sprinkle them with no glue but obviously that won't stay there when you transport the models, the hard part is getting snow that stays there and still has a realistic texture).
