Step 1 - drink filter coffee step 2 - leave coffee grains on top of cupboard to dry out step 3 - remember. scrape off mould and dry out in a low oven instead step 4 - profit? They stick better to pva glue then sand seems to - presumably becuase they're porus on a micro scale. you do need to make coffee with them first to get rid of the oils. Need concrete? egg shells. need tyranid pods? Monkey nuts |

only on 40k models at moment: look at the top right squat's boot. A piece of crushed eggshell - they've the right sort of texture for concrete, and make nice slabs of rubble: I'll try it further when I'm basing some of the war engines. ![]() |

I think I'll try the coffee thing, if only for the awesomeness value of saying the minis are based on coffee... |

madd0ct0r, your bases look like mud. But that makes sense, since they were ground this morning! |
