I;ve got pastels but Ithink thier should be another way to do it, but im not sure what paint scheme to use.This dio is set on the eastern front with snow. Can anyone help?

For a wash you'll want to use a highly diluted black 70/30 thinner/black. After that dries you use a light color like sand to drybrush the highlights. If you use the pastels do that last
