Hey titanate,
Thanks for the message I appreciate it. It is always great to hear that people enjoy my customs as much as I do in making them.
I tend to use 4 different types of paints when making a figure. I use the majority of the time a paint called Citadel acrylics. I also use Testors acrylic model masters on occasion. I will also use for less smooth effects a product called Liquitex acrylics. I'll seal everything with Testors Dull coat brushable enamel sealer. However 9 times out of 10 I'll use the Citadel paints and seal them with the Testors dull coat.
As far as Recondo you are correct sir! I sculpted some detail to his stache and I also resculpted his hair. Then I did some minor trimming down of some of his more "cartooney' features to his heads sculpt to make them more realistic.
If you have any further questions please just let me know
Thanks again
Dave
Hey, DavAnthony, I just keep going back to your TruGritt customs thread of Gen. Hawk, Lift Ticket, Recondo, Rip Cord and Spearhead. While I wish I had the ingenuity to pull of some Lift Ticket and Recondo mods like you did, I'd settle for knowing which paint you used for Recondo (and you didn't just simply repaint his head, you had to have sculpted a new mustache at the very least).
