To make these I just laid mesh over paper that had been spread with slightly water down PVA. I used a bigger sheet than needed as you can cut it to whatever shape afterwards anyway with small scissors. I then brushed on some more pva but it wasn't holding the mesh flat to the paper, so I ended up just putting drops of Super glue on top of the mesh at key points like around the edges and some in the centre before spreading them a bit with an old brush and then pushing the mesh flat with the stick end of a couple of brushes. The super glue seems to mix with the PVA and almost coagulate really quickly bonding it fast even with the gaps in the mesh. I've used this sort of reaction a few times when I want to speed up a PVA based gluing event. I hope that makes sense!Rob-not-stevehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13535589578326730130noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5766430862052117520.post-73602341104800364672015-10-05T13:41:54.807+01:002015-10-05T13:41:54.807+01:00I think they're great and the mesh creates a r...I think they're great and the mesh creates a really nice texture to the cloak. I've some original Space Crusade Scouts that I'd been planning to add Camo Cloaks to but had staleld at the though of sculpting them. This may be a better option. PVA and tissue on top of the mesh, at what poit does the super glue come into play?40kaddicthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12763647828123242837noreply@blogger.com
