In our third and final snow tutorial to come from our High Peak Pass project, we're taking a good looking at modelling deep snow. I'll be showing you how my snow work starting quite early in the terrain build. I also cover blending in your heavy snow terrain with your normal terrain, creating a snow gloop, snow dusting and finally sealing for game play. Hope it helps you Terrainiacs!

That you put so much thought into details like where snow drifts would gather really makes this shine as a terrain piece; not only does it look good, it looks realistic. With the way everything is frosted, with the icicles and snow drifts around the stairs, it reminds me very much of Castle Black from Game of Thrones.
Thanks buddy, quite chuffed with this one myself :-D
This is by far the best snow tutorial I have ever seen. I am not just saying that, I am actually very impressed by how useful this video is. Thank you, very much, for making this.
Thanks bud
Hah, love the hairspray trick for adding those last bits of snow dusting. Great idea!
Excellent tutorial! It looks really cold and snowy. Thanks for sharing this information.
This is really helpful stuff, Mel, keep up the great work!
Yes! Such useful tips, Mel. Cheers! Will be doing a snow scene at Christmas for my channel.
One of the coolest scenario i ever seen.
Wow! I love this technique. Thank you.
Simply amazing!! Now that is true talent. Thanks for sharing!!
You make me dream, awesome work as usual...
All it needs is Christmas lights. Looks awesome Mel!
I love your videos. Very informative and inspiring 👌🏻
I subscribed to your channel very recently while looking for minature scenes. I'm a newbie of polymer clay and when I watched this upload (my 1st one) I thought this channel is going to be so helpful to me in my crafting. So I'm going to binge watch more and will definitely be tuning into you other up-and-coming tutorials.
Welcome aboard buddy!
@@TheTerrainTutor Thank you
very good step by step for snow..thanks for sharing
Good job
' Learned a lot. and enjoyed it. Here in central New York we call then drifts also.
Thanks, Mel. This is very helpful.
Interesting, I have hairspray around anyway as an adhesion promoter for the 3D printer, so this would add a second use.
The flocking should be cheap to make too, just get a used kitchen grinder and throw in bits of white foam padding blocks from the hardware store.
Great job Mel
Brilliant mel cheers been looking for a way to do a winter Russian scene for a build got the precision snow and ice yesterday its amazing stuff but AK have alot of cool ice resin stuff out now I'm going to try soon I'll definitely get the white flock iv got vallijo white pigment white oils for making washes and then the snow and ice for over top of vehicles etc ! But was looking for a cheaper way of doing the base layer and making it deep! The footprints that came out in the snow and ice stuff is so cool lol!
Such great easy tips thank you
Great tutorial for what can be an overwhelming aubject!
Cheers bud
Hi mel.
I did some experiments with snow afew years back and came upon a product that really knocks the static grass snow out of the park. Its called ''ultra fine snow white nail glitter'' and is sold on ebay from a bunch of different sellers out of china for about 15£ for a 1 kilo bag. If nothing else the pricing makes it more than competitive so I decided to give it a go not really expecting much.
Its made for nail art or scrapbooking.
IMHO this stuff looks much better than the products being made for wargaming and is very versatile for making both clean and dirty snow. And it has that distinct sparkly effect that real snow has.
Nice video, gave me some ideas for a 1:72 snow diorama. Cheers mate.
Great video and I can't wait to apply this to some new terrain
Очень красиво выходит!
We call the snow-waves - "Drifts". Good job!
That's the word! :-D
Snow snow snowing terrain piece Mel
Great video I used your technique in a larger scale. What did you use to seal the finish the product with to make it hard? Thank you for your time!
You know, the more I see this, the more I think you ought to make some banners and things to attach to the walls because it looks quite plain at the moment for the structures themselves.
This should be good! I bought precision snow and ice yesterday for 25 bucks! Eh no way am I wasting it! Lol I need a cheaper option! For base layer and I'll use the precision on the top!
Wonderful Mel I missed what you used as the flocking material but it is fantastic
9:45 He uses 1 mm static nylon fibers
Thanks
Great build! Have you ever tried to incorporate glitter effects? Snow, especially deep snow, tends to sparkle and some kind of glitter as a sub-layer might be cool. I plan to give it a go, but at my rate its a couple of months/years away ;)
He adds ground glass for that. It doesn't show up well on camera.
Crushed glass will do that. But be sure to use a mask and gloves. It's rather tricky.
Either crushed grass or a dusting with a satin varnish mate
Looks cold 🏂
Hi, As a model RR'er im doing a large area in snow and this is by far the best video that ive seen. I do have a question. i see you have the white flock in bulk, can you please tell me where I can obtain large amounts of "snow" that is not $7.00 for 3 o.????? Man you are so thorough. I cant waite for the book.
Just got back into modelling, and I'm loving the videos... quick question... at 8.18 in the video, you start using what you call "caulk"... just to clarify (cos I've heard others mix the terms up!) - is it chalk, or is it silicone sealant (like you'd put around your base of your shower?!) Thanks in advance, and apologies if this seems a silly question
Noice!!
Seeing that you use matt varnish to seal it up, doesn't it take the glittering away? That's one of the tricky parts with snow and ice, I suppose, having it shine right, not too much but enough. Just like there is a wet effect Also, with other techniques like plaster, gels and pastes, would you say caulking is the best solution over all, or is it just most convenient to you for reasons like price or handling? Looks good what you're doing with it for sure.
Quick blast of satin varnish will sort that mate
I love your models but I want to suggest something. List in the description the materials you have used including the Manufacturer of the material.
How is the powder snow sticking to the ground (even after blowing it as you said) when you sprinkle it on? How did it stick to the top surface of the rocks but not the THIN sides?
I'd love to get into doing models like this but feel like getting through all those early crappy models is such a hurdle lol
It makes me cold just looking at it.
I was wondering if a mix of talc and crushed salt might make good 72 scale snow...
Makes m e cold just to look at it!
But the icicles!! How did you do the icicles?
Silicone sealant mate
Hey Mel, would you use similar techniques for sand dunes?
Substructure wise, yes mate
Would spray snow from a can work, or baking soda?
Very nice Mel. Are you going to add any camp fires?
no, it's done now
TheTerrainTutor maybe next time.
love making art, from clay or stuff like yours, question, what the snow made with? or you buy it ? can you make snow ?
1mm static grass
Static grass for snow ? Never thought anything like that. Thanks for the reply
Material list?
How thick a layer of the goop do you apply?
2-3mm mate
How did you do the icicles? Thx!
Ah, just watched the previous video, nvm! ;-)
Sorry, I don't understand what type of decor paste you mix with white acrylic. I've listened to it about ten times, but I don't understand. Can you write its name?
Same sounds like acrylic corking to me. You mean caulking? And is there such a thing as acrylic caulking?
How to make a realistic deep snow? Well,just take this outdoors in blizzard.And you get a very realistic result.
Good tips, but poor unnatural application of the medium.
