I haven’t tried the water based version but if its anything like the regular thiner based on it can be quite a messy glue. I dunno if it will change the properties of the glue by diluting it, definitely drying time (longer) but it might also effect its grip.

Also it can skin really fast so make sure you use a dollop of glue for about 20 minutes. If you know all this ignore my 2 cents. =]

Let us know how it goes though cause I hate the cleanup on the thinner based ones.

Hah yeah Dustan, you’re right about the time involved. However I’ve taken a bit of a hiatus recently with the arrival of Harry and this blog has slowed a little because of that.

However I’m feeling strangely revved up for some serious modeling now. I’ve picked up some water based ‘Liquid Nails’ and hope to find some time this week to experiment with it. If it works out well we should see some progress on the Cathedral.

“I can only think you’re mostly Hirst Arts fans, or you’re mostly sadists!”

Sorry, sadism here…

Makes me think a hefty proportion of your readers must be GW, Hirst or 28mm fans.

I think most of Stu’s visitors are closet FOW fans, but their vote got split between the Facade and the DAK… 35% voted FOW…. ;o)

Careful what you commit to Stu, even at my optimum pace that list is still a good years worth of work… two kids has drained my modeling down I have been trying to finish the last 5 of my chaos terminators (just the arms and a few little details for at least a month and a half…

I’m glad I didnt have to resort to logging onto ever pc at work to get the cathedral. Makes me think a hefty proportion of your readers must be GW, Hirst or 28mm fans.

I think certainly the first two on that list should be completed. After that I’m not so sure. The DAK Germans really should be painted, but the last figure I applied paint to was actually a 15mm Carthaginian Hoplite.

Stu – are you going to complete everything on that list in the order that we voted?
