If you want to add realistic snow to your model layouts, Tamiya 87120 Diorama Texture Paint in Powder Snow Effect delivers a fine, powdery finish. The water-based paste is suitable for scenic work on model kits and terrain, and a 100ml bottle will cover roughly a B4 area with one coat.
The paste contains marble particles so it spreads best with a spatula or an old brush to avoid ruining good brushes. Drying takes about 3-4 hours in warm conditions and 4-5 hours in cooler conditions, giving time to refine the look before it hardens. It is water-cleanable prior to drying and emits little odor during use.
You may mix Tamiya 87120 with other Tamiya acrylics to create slightly different tones for weathered snow. Do not use this texture paint in an airbrush, as its consistency can cause blockages. The product is a straightforward way to add convincing snow without advanced techniques.
