tried these with a camera.. most came out blurry, must be my eyes...

Nice skin tones on those.

The skin still looks great! But the snow looks a bit strange now. Perhaps it's due too the flash of the camera.

That's a nice looking hunting pack! The skin tone on the devanu is different but works very well.  With the  green skin and the snow I could see these living in the very northern forests.

Thanks ... I agree the snow looks a wee bit odd.. this is 2 layers of what I think is white sand.. 1 layer just looked frostyish .. 2 just looks perculiar.. if anyone has any tips on what / who makes good snow effect I would be glad of the advice .. the miniatures/bases have had a coat of dullcote... might drybrush some satin varnish over the snow give it some shine back?

I usually mix some white paint with PVA glue and add in some modelling snow (like modelling grass), but perhaps white sand works just as well.
For a more icy look I've seen a lot of people using backing soda.
Here's a quick tutorial on how to do this:

BuyPainted - How to make snow base for miniature?…: http://youtu.be/zsOTFMDVh0g

had a look at the baking soda method but read that it tends to yellow... watched a woodland scenics snow tutorial and that looks a similar process... that said I had painted pva on the base then sprinkled the white sand on top... might have a go mixing first then applying

At the video about Salute that Mike posted up, I saw a display case with a lot of snow (and the Delgon).
Perhaps you can ask Mike how it was done.
As for the modelling snow I use, it is from GW.
I mix the paint, snow and glue (and some water if it gets too thick) together before applying it. Never used the baking soda, so I don't know if it yellows or not.

I use a mix of GW snow, PVA and water. I mix a different consistency depending how I want it to look...
I recommend you buy good quality PVA so it doesn't go yellow. Baking soda might work but I probably wouldn't risk it.

For the larger scale board I used woodland scenics snow as it was less expensive than the small tubs of GW snow. I also used woodland scenics glue (can't remember what they call it, possibly scenic cement), and a spray (they sell one that fits on their scenic cement bottle that did the job well).

Have got myself some GW snow (thanks to Tim at Spellbound games) and am going to give it a go!... winter is coming...
