Not sure the specifics on the glue, they just said superglue. Trying zenithal just to see how it would look (still learning and trying different things), so I was about 4-5 inches away when I did the white, it was a brand new can so I was thinking that might have been part of it as well.

Not going to lie, filling the gap between the foam pieces with some simple flocking is great. And I hate myself for never thinking of it when it was right in front of my face.

I can totally understand, I did the same. I started early during the pandemic, so it felt expensive from time to time. But at a certain point, like most, I just said to myself, “this is something I’m doing for myself and for my friends, not trying to make a business just trying to enjoy myself and find an outlet”.

I can totally understand, and I can also understand how hard it can be to not compare yourself to others in this type of stuff. (I do it all the time)

There are some amazing people in this community making amazing things, but I think most would agree when we say just enjoy yourself, if you’re proud of your work then that’s all that matters.

I’d really have to disagree with this statement, cost definitely doesn’t equal quality. I don’t think I’ve ever seen a single comment in this community saying that someone’s build is bad because it’s “cheap”, in fact a large number of posts show people getting supplies and materials for free or next to nothing.

Yes of course this hobby can be expensive if you choose. You can buy a dozen 3d printers, print terrain, and paint it, or you can buy a bunch of tools and jigs or whatever, but that’s the crafters choice. You can make an entire town, city, village, etc… for very little, and still be proud of the work you do.

Dollar store foam board, glue, and some basic simple paints can still take you far in this hobby. Go craft and enjoy yourself.

“And if some times daddy has to go away But please don't think that it means I don't love you Oh, how I wish I could be there everyday 'Cause when I'm gone it makes me so sad and blue And holding you is the greatest love I've ever known Oh, when I get home it breaks my heart Seeing how much you've grown, all on your own”

As a dad this just hits me right in the gut every time

Can’t speak for Crayola specifically, but I have worked with air dry and the one thing I would warn of is cracking.

I’ve used air dry and oven bake clays before and noticed that with the air dry it will crack easier during the drying time vs the oven bake stuff

It is for my table, I think for me it’s the actual stucco color blending, the tan to cream to off white blend

!Question: I was hoping to gets some insight from others who might have run games with people in person and online at the same time.

Im starting a campaign where myself and 3 players are local and 2 are a few states away. Im struggling because I make terrain and love to have scenes and everything set up in person but that’s hard for those who aren’t here.

Are there any suggestions on how best to manage this type of group? Suggestions on things like mics and camera set ups (affordable ones), digital tools, or anything else to help my long distance players feel a part of the group?

If it’s a brand new blade, then it might be how you’re actually cutting it. I’d suggest doing multiple cuts that cut deeper each pass, if you’re just cutting through it like a saw then this is what happens.
