I am suddenly reminded of an incident that occurred in a much older iteration of this thread where some goon chipped a tooth and used green stuff to reform it.

It would be way better in essentially every possible way to just get a 3d print or replica of one to use.

Super Waffle posted:I've actually had the idea of using a small fox skull to make a sick chaos warhound Here you go. Professionally cleaned and ready for use as a teaching or anatomy specimen. Way easier than cleaning one yourself. Skulls won't have any kind of smell if they're properly cleaned, but it is a pain to do right. Fox skull is pretty big, might be better off using something like a mink or something similar. They have skulls of all kinds there. They sell replicas too but they're more expensive than the real thing. Rhandhali fucked around with this message at 18:13 on Nov 10, 2023 |

I have a bleached mink skull lying around for decades that I cleaned as part of some school project once. I don't play knights, but maybe I could use it for terrain.

Please either 3d print or purchase plastic equivalents of animal skulls, bones, etc. This is a warning from 40k Threads Past.

I have some decorative skulls and I do not think that you should use real bones that were once alive for your miniatures. Seems kinda tactless, I guess? It's not like it's too hard to find a "good enough" plastic equivalent.

I think even baking soda in basing is a hazard; I've read accounts about it yellowing over time and then eventually liquifying and turning the base to sludge. This doesn't seem to apply when used as a superglue accelerant as that's a chemical change, but it does apply when using it as filler for snow bases. (This is inconsistent so there's probably temperature/humidity factors at work for when/if it happens.) Stephenls fucked around with this message at 23:30 on Nov 10, 2023 |

I use bones a ton in my art practice, I've never really had any issues. They have all been professionally processed though, I don't do that myself. I want to, to cut my costs, but I'm not there yet.

The grossness of your average nerd overwrote the knowledge that the use of animal bones has been part of human art since we figured out how to chase down a deer and hit it in the head with a rock

I'm almost done with the ork ship, just need to finish the sails and add rivets. I think I'll just use canvas for the sails. Initially I was planning a full wind look, but if this thing is flying downwards I need to opt for a different position for the mast, plus the flags on the back will need to be in a different orientation as well. After I finish that stuff and prime it I'll take a photo. It's... Too big to fit in my dinky light box.

Speaking of kitbashing, today I used sewing thread as wire for a tiny demolition charge. But I definitely need more tech gubbinz for future projects.
