    Looking great Alan, it would appear that there is always a work around for every roadblock, well done for attacking it again.
    Strength isn't about what you can do, rather it's about overcoming what you thought you couldn't do.

        Really cool work indeed! I think dioramas really add something to a model. I've not done one myself but maybe one day.
        (well, upon thinking about it, I did do some dioramas back in the 70's but they came with the kit, not sure of the make, maybe matchbox? but you'd get like a tank and a small diorama to put it on which was like some rubble or a broken wall etc. quite cool back in the day but very simplistic)

          Figures looking great. I do hope the new spray idea works. Looks as if it has done so far.

            I have a couple of those pump bottles for the same purpose (and one with IPA to break the surface tension in basing materials)

            I do find the diluted pva one clogs up quite easily though, so it gets a good pump through with warm water after use.

              Yes it did clog up at first but i changed to mixing the pva in warm water and it seemed to sort it out. And yes i used warm water to clean through after too.
