So I played around with this idea for a while, mainly to go with my space wolves, an entire table, a boneyard of dead giant animals, all frozen and half buried in the snow.... pulling it off was the harder bit..... until someone linked me to a few vids on expanding spray foam!
First, For Reference.... this is some of the basic pieces (with some other terrain i had around, icy spikes, warpgate etc) before i really got down to the fun bits!

Next step, once id been put onto the expanding foam idea, was to get it started!

You will notice It does not look like much... yet!
Time to do some carving!

Next step for this lot, will be sealing it all up, painting the bones, and then snow flock/painting the rest to really give it that snow effect!
So far this is where I am at, the aim is to get it all done by next week, as I'm taking it to a tourny to help fill boards up! So stay tuned!
Oh... and lets not forget the next lot, curing overnight:
