Just finished some
Black Tree Design WW2 Russians firing a DSHK 1938 12.7MM HMG. Since they were wearing winter clothes I tried for the first time to add snow to my bases. I used a mixture of baking soda, white glue and white paint. I do not think I had the mixture right as it started to turn brown after I put it on. After many coats of white paint I finally were able to get white snow. Not sure why it changed color on me. Maybe next time I paint white where I want the snow so the ground color does not bleed through, or I just buy some snow effects and call it a day.
The "snow" kept throwing my camera off but I think you get the picture. It was not until I was up loading the pictures that I noticed the paint missing from the nose of the figure on the right in the first picture...that has now been corrected.
This last figure is of a Halfling riding an Emu. I had such a blast painting this. It was a nice change to paint something that was not in uniform.
Enjoy
