| Subject: | Card Board Building | |

Hi all,
I am considering corrugated cardboard (taken from any brown-box, with 5-6 mm
thickness) as the core for buildings in a diorama. The cardboard will be
coated (only on viewing side) with plaster on which the detail will be
carved.
I would like to know your long-term experience with this method, does the
finished wall crumble over the time due to moisture absorption from the air?
I lived in Indonesia where air humidity is high. Using styrene sheet will be
my last option due to cost and availability problem.
What material do you use for constructing building walls?
Thanks in advance,
Aripin |
