That said I still have a can of Purity Seal and should I ever do a snow themed board I would use it on that! Failing that it'd be a great sealant for MDF terrain or even half-press the nozzle so it sprays a bit 'splattery' and create a texture on terrain or a 'key' for that plastic that's always a bit dubious - I have a Mega Bloks Plasma Hatcher it'd work on.<br /><br />It's like my accursed Seraphim Sepia, I know that's going to go all crusty so I use it on extreme weathering now. There's always a use for $hit products, even if it's not their intended use ;)40kaddicthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12763647828123242837noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7125294933155144215.post-11676829105074843542020-02-04T12:24:21.899+00:002020-02-04T12:24:21.899+00:00The carapace was the best I could do at the time. ...The carapace was the best I could do at the time. Now at least I saved myself the risk of injury with the judicious use of pliers to remove the interior of the claw. It'd be nice to finally have a set of 6 but it'll definitely highlight the progress my painting has made since I first created them.40kaddicthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12763647828123242837noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7125294933155144215.post-74636604935292730062020-02-04T12:22:07.352+00:002020-02-04T12:22:07.352+00:00Cheers Mike, you know me, I just keep plugging awa...Cheers Mike, you know me, I just keep plugging away at this stuff.
