Old_Bob said:For that matter, when you folks talk of plaster, just exactly what do you mean?
jbaakko said:Tom, got a question, the back of the mountain is open right, are you going to cover it with something to avoid having it lit up in pictures?
steamhead said:Hey Tom,
Here I am catching up on your work...!!! Looks great...!!! A question: You say you apply crumpled foil to the Sculpatmold rock faces? Does this mean that you apply a glob of SM to the scenery and then "sculpt" it with the foil; or do you pour the SM into a pre-wrinkled foil and then apply the dry mold to the scenery?? Do you treat the foil with any sort of releasing agent?? Any light you shed will be most welcome.
Keep up the great work...!!!sign1
Cool, was just wondering, because I didn't want you to have that as a late thought!TomPM said:Sorry I did get right to this. I got tied up with some stuff and forgot.
I plan on covering it. I want something that I can easily remove to access the area. I am thinking of using a dark heavy cloth or piece of felt that is tacked to the side of the tunnel.
The other thing I am contemplating is some type of removable liner.
