I’ll second that question. I recently bought a couple of Vallejo producys and they look pretty much exactly what I could have done with some Polyfilla.

Cheers! Tried and true method then. I’ve heard that it yellows with age but then I’ve had a packet open in the pantry for the better part of a year and never noticed ant discolouration.

For my snow bases I used an off-white drybrush and then PVA with talcum powder sprinkled on top. Not as shiny as baking soda, but I think it looks ok.

I painted these to ages ago, when I had a fetich fro gebirgs- and fallschirmjagers, both. So they are Ansell. I used  to think they were Hicks' work but  looking at them now it is pretty clear they aint.
