About the paint I mean
What about a clear coat? Doesn't that help adhere the paint and prevent chipping and transfering? |

Firstly, awesome figure, and nice idea.
Firefly did look kinda arctic to me, and I'm glad I'm not the only one. ooks great. Quote:
I bet you're using enamel paint or some kind of oil based paint. Switch to acrylic modeling paint. That will fully dry on the limbs of these ME figures b/c the limbs use a softer plastic that has a reaction to oil based paints. Oil/enamel based modeling paint will never fully dry on the softer plastic.
If you did use enamel, best bet is to take rag, dip it in thinner, remove the oil paint and start over with acrylic paint. What's the big deal? |
