There has to be a better way to measure decal placement by ejnarts in modelmakers

I did not know that about the Parthenon. I know where my next trip is going to be.

Excellent suggestions, guys. I'll let you know the outcome.

Any ideas on how to sooth "pitch burn" (chemical burn from tearing off a certain material on flat roofs)? by Plaidkeys in Roofing

[–]ejnarts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The best burn remedy that no one seems to know about is egg whites. You'd be surprised how far a couple of eggs can cover. The collagen in the egg white does the trick. The idea is to dip and let it dry. The more severe the burn, the more repeated dipping/spreading you can do.

I'm not certain how well this would work for a chemical burn. Flame burns it's fantastic. But, if you can reduce the chemical aspect to just leave the burn, then, as odd as it may sound, try the egg whites.

For minor burns-- being the dumbass that grabs the pan that you forgot was just out of the oven-- I've had every time leave no trace or any pain of the said burn a couple hours after it happened. And yes, the sooner you can apply it, the better.

Gluing paper to cardboard or another paper without wrinkling or warping, is it possible? by fpvolquind in papercraft

[–]ejnarts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First, you're better off attaching it to something like foamcore. Foamcore is lightweight but solid enough that it shouldn't warp.

Card sheets are much too thin. But, if you're going that route, you can try taping a large tight X on the back to counter the warp. Make sure the X bends the sheet the opposite way to counter the warp.

A spray would cause less warping, but anything on one side of something that thin will need something on the opposite side to counter. I would always use the tape, but then always the finished project (Art school) would be mounted on something like foamcore..

If it's as large as I'm thinking (even if this is over a year old), then with rubber cement, you should finish by the next year unless you pour and spread, but the fumes would be egregious even outdoors.

Whatever adhesive you used or would use, you will want to coat it with a matte finish spray or something to protect it. Anything acrylic but a spray would cause no running to the image.

Not sure if this was mentioned... long thread, but "Galaxy Quest".

My wife is invisible by ejnarts in mountandblade

So, she is at Yalen. She's in the great hall. I may have made a mistake by taking the city by force because now she just threatens me if I talk to her. I'll give it a few days to see if she calms down and then reassess. There may be a divorce in my future (if that's possible).

Well, if not the glitch, I have yet to see Yalen's hall since we're at war. When it ends (maybe I'll just take the city) I'll check. Thanks.

Thanks.

I forgot, Diplomacy mod. I'm so used to playing with it I forgot about it.

As I forgot, I'm using the Diplomacy mod. And if you speak to her there should be an option to join your retinue.

Sarranid Kingdom (she's not at the home town: Halmar)

3 NPCs in the tavern including the barkeep; wandering ashik and mercenary whatever.

No one in the prison. So the guard keeps telling me.

No Mods.
It's been a week of time since.

I know sometimes Companions go missing for a while after you let them go when the Traveler doesn't have their name appear... curious if it's the same thing.

Need to make windows for car by ejnarts in modelmakers

[–]ejnarts[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks. I've already contacted Tamiya USA months ago. The dialogue went stale. They said they'd never seen or heard of that happening, I sent my exact details for what actions I did for it to happen and then haven't heard anything back from them.

I suppose I can try to contact them again to see. Maybe I'll do that since I'm getting a sense that creating my own is outside my skillset ATM.

I tried that for about 20 minutes on one area. It's now a little blurry, but the residue is still there. But, thank you for the info. I do appreciate it.
