About the Project

Soo…I got distracted from the thing (Direwild) that had distracted me from finishing painting my Aristeia! collection. The thing that distracted me from my distraction? Making terrain for games that I have yet to assemble and paint. Yes, welcome to the interior of my brain!

This Project is On Hold

I discovered this evening that rattle can primer melts styrofoam. Oops!

I should be able to salvage quite a bit as I didn’t try and prime everything in one go but there were casualties.

Any suggestions for quickly getting a durable base coat on styrofoam? It doesn’t have to be perfect but does need to knock the white back to a grey or brown.
