I would like to get some input on using different mixes of concrete, cement, plasters and glued to create stone, plaster and brick effects- i experimented with a mix of spackle, water, and tacky glue to surface a 1/12 scale Ancient Roman stove- I tinted the mixture with acrylic paint and spread it over the matte board I used to make the stove form. Im happy with the end result-but it dried very quickly and got gloppy before I could smooth it out better. This is a link to my miniatures Facebook page where I've posted photos of the stove in progress- and a couple other things - you can get an idea of what I've been working on:) https://m.facebook.com/Crafting-History-in-Miniature-145349899474628/ -
What are the best ways and materials to create a plaster wall effect? Does anyone use cement or concrete mixes to create surface effects? I made an ancient Roman stove in 1/12 scale and used a mixture of spackle, water and tacky glue on the surface, tinted with a bit of acrylic paint. I am satisfied with the result but I'd like to find something that is easier to work with. I included a link to my new miniatures Facebook page where I have photos of the stove and other items I've made- I'd love any input or suggestions:) I https://m.facebook.com/Crafting-History-in-Miniature-145349899474628/
