“Über die Brücke” (A Spring Cleaning Challenge - 30 years late!) with Zebraoutrider
Phase 4 - Rebuilding the Bridge
After initially gently, pushing back the powdery modelling clay onto the bridge superstructure using neat PVA glue, it was time to add a bit more robustness by using a mix of 3:1 PVA glue to Babdab Black wash. The idea here is that the plaster will absorb the glue mix and provide more strength than it originally had whilst the grey colour will blend the stone work together.
After removing the masking tape from the display base, it was necessary to clean up the woodwork using an old toothbrush and white spirit (I didn’t want to use any more water just in case it warped the wood).
