Make a thickness strip of Plasticard about 3 mm.
Cut a section of strip of the future paving.
Glue the 2 parts with Cyanocrilate.
Glue the piece.
Sand the three free sades to level the surface, it have to keep at right angles.
Cut the support and level the end.
Cut a strip of aluminium of 10 mm width with a sade of 90º.
Keep the strip with masking tape, aligned with millimetre paper
At bends in the intermediate, helping by scapel, weak. If we want an angle paving but If we want round corner, will not do this.
Cut the end of the piece.
Cutting of the aluminium piece.
Bend the aluminium with a beam.
Superior sight of the brick piece of plasticard of 2-3 mm on the superior end. Glue it with Araldit.
Make a little ball of any putty (in this case I used Duro).
Over this ball, put the piece as it filled up the superior hole and stands a good deal on the sides.
Put a wings pieces on the putty to make the handle function.
Here you have the example of various sizes.
Putty and tools.
The normal way was put the putty on the Diorama base, but in this case we put it on a crystal.
In this case, the putty was a bit dry, because it was oppened by several month so we wet it with a wet cloth.
Make a reference line.
Make the paving as good as posible, doesn’t mind the pression, only we have not perforate the putty with the stamp.
Doesn’t mind if it doesn’t look perfect, in the reality this happened too.
With a brush, wet the paving with water to keep the putty fresh while we finish.
Test the different stamps and we could use straws too.
We let it dry for a day and then we’ll proceed to sand it with a fine block, we could remake any pave with the compass or an scapel but isn’t necessary.
We could use a mix of white glue and fine sand to fill the joints of the pave with a brush.
Finally, paint with always do with imprimated material.
I made this on June of 2009.
