Thank you sir. Your enthusiasm is contagious!
Richybee,
Fish tank items can be great scenery and they come pre-painted! I haven't found many that are cheaper than I would make myself, but a shop we sometimes game at has some awesome Greco/Atlantean ruin pieces that I really like.
Gallahad,
Thanks for the kudos, You'll be pleased to hear that the full recipe and method are laid out in the blog post.
