I write these mostly fo rmy own amusement – hopefully someone out there likes them as well.
This is the second scenario of my Nuts! (Two Hour Wargames) campaign. The first was a small patrol, with victory going to the Soviets. That puts the Finns on the defense for this scenario

I like the snow effect on the bases, what are you using?

Interesting battle and you got to use your ski troops. You have put a lot of work into your world; bravo!
Enjoy

It's basically a mix of decopauge, white craft paint and snow flocking until it looks right.
When needed (it isn't always) I sometimes put another layerr of just flocking on top.
I don't like the look of smooth snow – not on 25mm figs anyway – so that's why I apply it unevenly
