Also it would mean you could use much less sugar/salt/shavings of human flesh etc.

Also, I'd reccomend blu tack on the end of a stick to help clean up after, you can use it to get the "snow" out of hard to reach places in your sets and figures.]]></content>

			<content type="html"><![CDATA[Same as Daniel said, except that you should be cautioned that sugar is [b]EXTREMELY[/b] hard to work with, and that it takes great patience to make it turn out correctly.  To get a good effect you must be sure to have a small paintbrush with you to help brush the sugar off your minifigs and props and to help move the sugar efficiently around your set.  Also, you have to be careful to remove all the sugar from your set when you are done, since if you don't you will attract [b]LOTS[/b] of ants.]]></content>

Here's a link to the program CT mentioned.  It works great for making a falling snow effect, rain, and pools water.  For one of my films, I used sugar for the ground snow.  It worked quite nicely.  Here's a link in case your interested:

Is there a good substance that you could use for accumulated snow on the ground effect?

How would you do falling snow?

How would you do this effect without getting "snow" all over the minifig?]]></content>
