Information literacy; methods of imparting information to library users in an academic environment... are you still awake?<br /><br />@ Michael - I've already squeezed an extension, so I can't legitimately leave it much longer! It's the last one for the year, so I've just got to stop procrastinating and I'll be FREE for a couple of months!Ben Gilmourhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09548280904041987733noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5652852907403338532.post-14556172118188440362011-11-10T09:46:31.724+11:002011-11-10T09:46:31.724+11:00Great job on the figs, sod the assignment get them...Great job on the figs, sod the assignment get them Dragoons done!!!

I'll stick with the matt effect!<br /><br />The 2 layers act quite well as a protective coat that provides extra stiffening to the notoriously bendy parts like musket barrels tipped with bayonets, the worst parts for paint flaking. So the benefits of the varnish are 2 in 1: it shades and protects the figures.Ben Gilmourhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09548280904041987733noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5652852907403338532.post-84153872733510183302011-11-09T12:21:29.557+11:002011-11-09T12:21:29.557+11:00Yes, Wattyl gloss varnish to seal and protect, and...Yes, Wattyl gloss varnish to seal and protect, and matt to... well... matt it. I paint both layers on rather than using a spray as the spray can miss spots on the undersides of the models.<br /><br />There is also a suggestion out there in cyberspace that gloss polyurethane is more flexible than the matt and so provides better protection for plastic figs. Not sure how to go about proving that one scientifically?Zardozhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15120730367453632421noreply@blogger.com
