Painting Relicblade

Finishing the Relic Blade cardboard tokens with a black paint marker around the edges and a dome of Mod Podge Dimensional Magic on each face.

The steps

  1. Rim each token with a black paint marker. It seals the cut edge of the card and stops them looking like bare punch-outs.

  2. Flood each face with Mod Podge Dimensional Magic and let the surface tension pull it into a dome. Do not spread it.

  3. Leave them flat to cure.

Sealing the Edges

Started by rimming each token with a black paint marker. It seals the edge of the cardboard and makes them actually look finished instead of like bare punch-outs.

The Dome Coat

Then I covered each side with Mod Podge Dimensional Magic. The surface tension does the work for you. It cures into a natural dome that looks really nice and gives the cardboard a hard shell on top that should hold up to a lot of table time.

Did one side, let it dry, then flipped them and did the other.
