TJP Posted January 3, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 3, 2014 The dragon has a basecoat and a wash on it. I found my BSB model - he was a victim of the Great Kitchen Floor Disaster of 2012, so he's been repaired and basecoated/washed, but needs to be finished up. I started on a new, more ambitious display board... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MexicanNinja Posted January 3, 2014 Report Share Posted January 3, 2014 What kind of foam and glue did you use? I am going to try my first disply board this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TJP Posted January 3, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 3, 2014 Pink insulation foam from Lowes (comes in 4x8 sheets of various thickness) and white glue. Since it's pretty much non-porous and trapped between two layers where it can't get air, make sure to give it a LONG time to dry before you start carving or you'll find wet spots and maybe have your construction fall apart. You can get foam super-glue, but it's much more expensive - I've never tried it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TJP Posted January 6, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 6, 2014 Final carving done on the display board. It still needs a little more attention on the lava flows at the bottom and some wall-filler and sanding on the sides and back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
