Hiya all
Ok here I am building my first ever diorama (well technically second but my first long term diorama) when I come across a wonderful article on "Building better trees"in the December 2002 finescale modeller magazine.
Cool says I until oh ummm great so what brand rubber cement does this guy use anyway, only rubber cement that I can remember goes back to my childhood years and was a blue and white tin with a bear on it (the glue was yellow and tacky and very stringy when pulled out). I decide to go and check out what rubber cement means here in Australia and to my dismay all anyone can tell me is that it is something used in building houses etc. Great no help there back to the drawing board.
Next attempt takes me to ringing the Glue Manufacturing Companies over here, could be, maybe its, sounds similar to our contact adhesive.
So here I sit still confused and not able to make any real progress on my trees so now I have bare trees with no peeling bark bits and I'm about ready to throw the whole idea in the bin.
Anyone out there able to give me a name brand of a rubber cement and tell me whether it is the one used in building houses or whether it is the bear tin one please?
Thanks folks, (my knight, black dragon and dungeon keep ruin will be most grateful) not to mention myself.
Cheers
Lori
