Really nice painting considering how much you said you were a novice. One tip for picture taking, hold the camera further away than you are, use the macro setting (normally a flower) and zoom in. The camera will have a much better chance of focusing clearly on the model.
Without meaning to step on Rev's toes, most people either base first and paint the basing material as well as the model. Or alternatively, as with the snow, paint the model, then base it and try to avoid getting basing material on the model.
Doing it by basing and then trying to avoid painting it would be hard work.
PVA glue is good for basing, or wood glue, or indeed most hobby style glue. Cheap is good here too as you will use plenty across the bases of an army so don't waste superglue
Oh and welcome back from your lurking! :wink:
