AK1227 creates textured snowy ground for miniature bases and diorama scenery. AK also allows it to be combined with other Diorama Series products to create different snow effects. The 100 ml jar provides a raised snow texture over the material supporting the scene, bringing surface relief and ground treatment into one application.
Use a stiff-bristled brush when transferring paste from the jar to prepared ground
Adding water produces a softer texture while reducing how much relief is built
The paste has a matt finish

Notes · Q & A
What are AK Wargame Terrains used for?+
AK Wargame Terrains are coloured texture pastes for building ground on miniature bases, wargame scenery and dioramas. Applied over the chosen base material, they provide both colour and physical relief; AK's guide uses foam as one example.
How do I apply the paste, and can it be thinned?+
Apply it straight from the jar with a stiff-bristle brush, spreading the paste across the prepared base. Adding a little water reduces its volume and gives the texture a softer consistency; AK names no other thinner for this range.
Can I paint over the terrain after it dries?+
Once the paste has dried, AK allows other painting media to be used over it. Filter glazes and washes are named examples, and the finished surface can also support attached scenic elements.
How do I add stones, grass or vegetation?+
Press natural elements into the paste while it remains fresh, using water to blend them into the surrounding terrain. Smaller pieces are held as the paste dries, while AK specifies white glue for larger additions.
Can the colours be mixed, and how much will I need?+
AK states that colours from the range can be combined to create new tonal variations. Choose the starting colour for the ground being modelled, then mix shades where required. Each jar contains 100 ml, but AK publishes no coverage figure, drying time or composition for this range.
