General Techniques

Creating Snow Effects

This guide introduces a range of materials and techniques for creating realistic snow effects in scenic modelling. It outlines how to use the Deluxe Scenic Snow Kit—which combines snowflakes, icy sparkles, and Scenic Bond adhesive—to achieve natural snow coverage on urban and rural scenes, trees, grass, and architectural features. The sheet also describes alternative snow products, including NOCH Snow Powder, white flock fibres, and frost/snow-effect spray, explaining their uses, coverage, and application methods. Practical examples demonstrate how these materials can be layered to build convincing winter landscapes for models, dioramas, and props.
