The paint covers it easily (plenty of posts showing that!) and seals them well.<br /><br />You can also cover them in an elmer's glue layer if you feel like you have to add extra strength...wappellioushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11545341272914600283noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4349727365634393854.post-6752176332923585422015-01-12T15:34:21.130-06:002015-01-12T15:34:21.130-06:00Good looking bases, even though they aren't fi...Good looking bases, even though they aren't finished yet. I have a question concerning bark... how long does it last? I mean, wood will probably dry or rot and either cases crumble with time, wouldn't it? How does real wood and bark put up with paint, spray primer, spray varnish, inks, dry brushes, glues and our big fat clumsy hands handling them and touching them endlessly on the tabletop during battles? I always thought that people should use fake wood (like carving "bark" out of putty) instead of real one for their bases for them to last.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17267309818292378156noreply@blogger.com
