Hello one and all,
I am Benjamin I will be giving you an course on how to increase the longevity of your paper Mini's.These are things i have used in the past and have really helped. So lets Get Started.
1. Use Cork board for the Base. This will Increase the life span of the Base only (Obviously) but you can put paper/3d scenery on top of the cork board opposed to the normal Paper Base.
- Side note: If you already have an Paper miniature army. Add Cork board Support to the bottom of each mini or just the mini's you really like.
2. Now if you just want to preserve the Paper Minis that you Worked really hard on. On future mini's Get them laminated. Then When it comes time to glue use an hot Glue gun. Got to love the smell of Burning Plastic. LOL
3. This one i discovered recently. It is more feminine than any of the above but it gets your minis looking realistic and it does deal little with paper. Use Fabric to Increase the longevity of your Minis, then use flattened paper Clips sewn threw the Fabric to give your minis Shape.
- Side Note: Use an Hot Glue gun to Glue it to the Base. Choose an Base Color that is the Base color of your miniature. So if you have an Orc with Green skin Go with Green. Then use Paper to make the armor & weapons.
Feel free to add ways that you have enhanced the life of your paper minis.
