This stuff just doesn't look convincing. Drybrushing white over it doesn't do anything at all to make it look more convincing.

I was thinking that maybe astrogranite heavily drybrushed with praxeti white (or whatever white) would look more convincing, because the grey would give it some shadow.

I also saw online that someone washed the snow texture blue and then drybrushed that heavily.

Thoughts?

Are you going for a snow base? What I did was use sand with PVA/White Glue then mixed this here: http://woodlandscenics.woodlandscenics.com/show/Item/SN140/page/1 with PVA/White Glue and put it where I wanted to on the sand, worked pretty well for me and I suck in the painting/modeling area of the hobby.
