Crackle one has failed :(

Sigh. It's hard to have spent money and effort on custom building a base and declare it a failure. Yes. My custom base for my Thundertusk has failed. 


Multiple failure reasons:
1. Crackle paint applied too thin and started warping once it dried.
2. Tried to remedy above by going over with watered-down white glue - didn't work.
3. Wanted blue ink to stay within the cracks but since there's warp, paint went under the painted instead. 
4. Easy water was final nail in the coffin. Tried pouring heated Easy Water into base. Realize that it was not hot enough had did not flow, resulting in the globby mess. 
5. Plasticard base cannot take the temperature and started melting as well.

Ran out of materials to make a new base. Just a terrible night...
