@the_minimal_dmАй бұрын
actually no... it was an illusion spell in effect.... and I should point out that while I 'hate' playing with unpainted minis, I will o occasion stoop to that level. Especially when one of my players brings one along, then leaves it long enough for me to get hacked off and paint it for them.... not looking at anyone in particular...

That green part is only in the picture and it’s supposed to go on the spring part underneath. I bought one and I think I’m going to throw it away because it’s a safety hazard to not have an off switch. I’m not about to get burnt trying this thing. lol. I only paid $4 so I’m not losing much.
@the_minimal_dm5 ай бұрын
LOL, that's what I get for letting the kids assemble something... I certainly hear what you are saying about the off switch, and unclipping to turn it off is a hassle. I've also noted the wood warping underneath where the bottom spring attaches which is effecting the tension. But as you say, it's cheap enough, and at 6 volts only, its not like it's going to electrocute me with the lack of a power switch, and the burn is going to be less than if I slip with my hot wire knife. At least it can do straight cuts which I only do rarely and the knife can't really cope with.

The nylon 'bristly' pipe cleaners are a pain, you want the soft type which is what I would expect for something called chenille - I no longer buy them on line for that reason, the novelty of 'click and pray' has definitely worn off! The soft stuff does matt down nicely, especially if you use 'gum' from the stationers as that shrinks more than PVA. I haven't tried it yet but playing a lighter over the nylon might produce something more useable, or it might just collapse. Fluffy pipe cleaners are also handy for quick and simple tree, I usually use three twisted together with the bits trimmed off the ends used as additional branches. I use teased out nylon pan scrub for the basic foliage, you can improve it by adding some coarse flock (in which case tease the scrub out more).
