      I love your channel and all the creative tiny scary/creepy/pretty/soothing/fantasy/nerdy things you make. I was wondering, I would love to see you do a book nook for Narnia as well, I'm thinking the scene when Aslan reappears on top of the hill after breaking the stone table as Susan and Lucy watch.

    You can always make a paste out of pva glue, das clay and water and use it instead of texture paste. It is much sturdier and easier to fill cracks and work with in general. If you can mix the paste really good, it might have a special, lumpyish texture that helps covering that dull foam texture!
