You wanna create a super realistic ice effect? well, making ice for our terrains and miniatures has never been so easy! I am using this technique for my WH40k Seawolves! What will you use it for?

I am looking for ice ideas to use in my Mr Freeze book nook diorama. Thank you for these ideas, I’m sure I will use and adapt them to achieve a great ice look for the cave.

[@mattobrien4849]

This is great!

[@SvenEnterlein]

Might use this as inspiration for my Blood Bowl Norsemen team. I just can't get enough ideas for icy landscapes! Thanks :)

[@goforitpainting]

Cool

[@andreamoro6524]

Hey! Thanks for this tutorial, it's great and you gave me a few ideas for a project i have in mind. I was wondering, have you ever tried, if it is even possible, mixing UV resin with colours?

[@zpaintingminiatures8894]

Bravissimo è eccezionale! Complimenti ottimo effetto! 👍👍👍

[@DarkGoblinMiniatures]

grazie mille ❤🙏

[@oliveribrahim7686]

Such an excellent tutorial! I am going to try this 100% What was the reason for painting the first resin element fully? Was it purely to get additional height or was it so that the there a coloured front edge for photography from the front that would be seen through the resin vs only colouring the flat base before applying the ice chunks?

[@danielecarbone9475]

Simple and beautiful, i was curious about blue stuff for quite some time, but now i'll definitely try it! By the way, this composition would be perfect with hollow bases (also from GreenStuffWorld), you can cure the resin in different layers and add little white stone or sand to simulate ice blocks under the slabs, or scratch the resin in different layers, etc. Would love to see your take on magma bases next!

[@DarkDevil6767]

Liked, subscribed and shared. Very well done. I enjoyed your video and creativity!

[@derekburge5294]

Fantastic work! Going to try to scale this to Battletech sizes. Grazie!

[@DarkGoblinMiniatures]

thank you so much! wow nice! looking forward to seeing a picture :)

thanks for your support ;)

[@zraal3759]

Hey man love your videos. Hope every thing is doing well.

[@Zhoyzu]

mmm yes ill definitely be doing a combination of these Ice bases and the other Ice video that brought me here for my slaves to darkness

[@alistairmacrae4993]

This is great! I'm going to try and do this for my Chaos Knight basing, my only worry will be will it look alright spaced out over such large bases.

[@DarkGoblinMiniatures]

hi! I think it will be cool! I never tried on larger surfaces, but I was thinking to create a Blood Bowl iced field! :D Try on one and let me know how it turns out. You can use larger slates to cast your ice, or you can add smaller pieces one next to each other :)

[@noisy7089]

Bro. Your tutorials are golden. Subscribed, but only under the condition you throw out at least 10 more videos ❤ killer creativity and talent my guy! Also can I request some takes on ocean - epoxy - or water effects? Keep up the great work

[@Dagglestone]

I want to do these ice themed Khorne demons. Sort of a “vengeance is a dish best served cold” kind of thing. Also I have the greenstuff world resin flaming skulls. I want to use them for ethereal cold fire on the bases

[@jamesedwards8175]

This is really obvious now that I think about it, but it's brilliant!

[@DarkGoblinMiniatures]

thanks!! ❤ it's the power of uv resin that help us all! :D

[@patryknowak7061]

Hi I am using your ideas and I am very satisfied. Maybe you could record a video where you create something for Salamanders or Blood Ravens?

[@fortheloveofking]

I'm looking for all sorts of techniques to make a frozen heart Christmas ornament. I'll be sculpting it solid (because there's going to be a key hidden in it) and then clear coating it with different techniques. I was wondering how you think plain ol' table salt would work to add a sparkly frost layer in strategic areas.

[@DarkGoblinMiniatures]

I think it may work, I am not sure how long it will last but it is worth trying it. Actually I will give it a try myself :D

[@jaysheeler2179]

Im having an issue with super gluing my uv resin pieces together. Any suggestions?

[@nadavkapuano5534]

could u please do a nurgly base next?

[@Guzwar]

If I add a drop of paint - standard mini acrylic or ink - to the UV resin is there a chance that the paint will colour and/or affect the blue stuff?

[@cupraflash6892]

Awesome tips thank you. Where did you get the UV Resin from? I am going to use the ice shards for my 9 year old sons Ice dragon base 👍❄️❄️❄️

[@DarkGoblinMiniatures]

you can find on amazon uv resin for nails (usually is cheaper and it is really the same of more fancy brand :D )

[@mr.trevito528]

@@DarkGoblinMiniatures is water texture by vallejo pretty much the same as uv resin?

[@DarkGoblinMiniatures]

@@mr.trevito528 I am not sure, I used vallejo water texture but it takes much more time to dry, I prefer uv resin :)

[@tmarcb1296]

For ice spikes, is there a way to keep detail all the way around it? For ice spikes to place on the miniature itself?

[@kirstyj1]

you may not need it now but you can imprint both sides of your foil shape, once they are cured apply some resin with a brush on the flat part to line up with your other impression so flat side to flat side and hold while you cure again and they will seal to make a full ice spike. you can gently file and buff resin if there is a seam or join line.
