    Not really Scenery, but if you ever wondered what to do with your badges/pins from tournaments...Fridge magnets!

    I have been doing this a while but finally finished my faction collection, and added magnets up but white-tacked them on my display shelves.

    I used strong 12 or 15mm x 2mm Magnets. Slo Zap glue, ball of green stuff, after clipping the pin off of them.

    Great stuff here! I'm building a haqq table, and I'm very interestested the persian styly ruggs you've made. Are these simply printed on paper, or is there more going?

    Thanks. Yeah they are just ebay doll houses Persian rugs, saved jpg's from their images, or screen shot. Printed onto glossy photo paper, to be tough enough to play over. Helps break up empty floors.

    Someone Posted this Avatar toy on FB. Mc Farlanes Toys is the maker. It needs a bit of de-toying. Will have to be done carefully not to ruin the black light effect. Will work well with the Paradiso boards.

    Just matt varnish will do enough to take the shiny "toy" effect off it without damaging the UV reactivity of it.

    Do you have a recommendation? Normally using Matt Clear Coat for my scenery and mini's, but it dries slightly satin.

    I'm currently using the Vallejo matt varnish - but I'm using my airbrush to apply it.

    Some of the Pandora plants need the "shiny" look, though - they're meant to be somewhat "slimy".

    There's various "ultramatte" varnishes out there and i really don't think there's much difference about them. Once you apply the matte you can go and apply some gloss by hand to anything that needs it.

    Welcome to the Fey Realm. Paradiso jungle table piece got planted up with tuffs. Pink ones really pop and add to the built-in black light effect. Great result from a toy, with minimal effort.
