    Re: Bal Ganesha done on thermocol

    :hiya Viji

    Thank u!!!!!!!!!!
    I don't think Ganeshji is looking sad so u know I didn't scold him,haha!!!
    As for the procedure, actually it is done on a thick thermocol, thin can't be used as it will break easily.
    I tried to trace the design but couldn't so I cut the outline of the design, placed it on the thermocol & cut using a paper cutter.
    Then u have to apply a mixture of white cement, glue & little water, no ratio reqd to give a stiff finish
    After it dries apply black paint & spray white paint using a toothbrush, leave it to dry
    Then draw the inner design, I did free hand drawing...
    Any more doubts do feel free to ask
