Skip a step if you get 50% isopropyl alcohol and use that fluid to make your 50-50 mix of PVA and water, just use the 50% isopropyl instead. In effect you get 50% PVA, 25% isopropyl, 25% water.

This is what I think every time I see this process. Is this true?? Along those same lines, I've wondered if it would be prudent to add the first basecoat of brown paint into the final plaster/modeling compound, for speed but also so that chipped plaster just reveals more basecoat rather than stark white.

I love how this captures the look of 2001 Games Workshop, but not cartooney or tacky. Probably because the flock doesn't look radioactive! Really nice build :)

woodland scenics remain the gold standard in terrain making, they do a nice little paint set specifically for colouring plaster in earth tones for cliffs etc that's really good. also, never thought I'd be telling other people to buy this as I only got it because it was 2nd hand and cheap, but their little vacuum they sell with filters so you can get all the flock back that doesn't glue so you don't waste it, actually works!

Pumpkin stems make great DIY tree trunks and now is the time of year to start looking for them. Look for ones that are at least 3 inches tall so a human sized mounted model can be played under the lowest branches. I've made some of the most realistic and durable trees by using them this way.
