The Book of Four-Space Glacier Custom Tutorial
http://c3ggames.com/C3G/released/terrain/Ice/IceGlacier.jpg
-Supplies Needed-
Household aluminum foil
Sculpey Oven Bake Clay
An official Heroscape one-space Glacier or a small screw driver
A conventional or toaster oven for baking
A cookie tray
A paint brush
"Regency Blue" acrylic paint
A can of "White" interior/exterior spray paint-Tutorial-
Start off by building a simple Hex design to compare the size of your model to as you work. By removing the official four-space Glacier and replacing it with your model from time to time, you can help ensure that your finished product will be able to fit on the battlefield correctly.

Mold your aluminum foil into the shape of an official four-space Glacier.

Mold a thin layer of Sculpey over the entire aluminum model.

Flip the official one-space Glacier upside down, place it against the side of the model, and roll the two together as you press them in. This should create a nice pattern across the model.

or, if you don't have the official one-space Glacier, you could use a small screwdriver to create a similar pattern. Place the flat end of the screw driver on the model near the top and drag down creating small crevices along the sides.
Stand the model up on your baking sheet and place it in the oven.

Bake according to the directions.
Paint the model with the "Regency Blue" paint, similar to "Light Blue". Make all of your brush strokes starting from the bottom and working to the top on all sides. Leave plenty of unpainted surfaces as your brush naturally skips over them.
Spray paint the model from a birds eye view (facing down). This will help simulate a snow fall pattern.
Your finished product can now be placed on the battlefield and used as a four-space Glacier or a C3G Ice Glacier Destructible Object (http://www.heroscapers.com/community/showthread.php?t=37013).
