This post: Putting on the coal You buy the coal in little bags, but i find it helpful to put it in an old kit box or something like that. Dont dump the coal on, just sprinkle it on with your fingers until you get the desired effect. Here is a picture of what it looks like with the coal sprinkled on before gluing.

I like to use an oral syringe to drip on the wet water, and then the glue. [IMG]http://img157.exs.cx/img157/3473/coal225vk.jpg[/IMG] Now lets wait for this to dry overnight.
