The only problem is white which needs a second coat to get a good opague finish.<br /><br />Thanks<br /><br />MarkMark Dudleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13331203191073034775noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7538035190723791338.post-48302656624692136662018-01-01T12:34:33.425-08:002018-01-01T12:34:33.425-08:00Hi Aly

As I mostly use Acrylics adding a coat of paint does not obscure detail. Of course if the figures are covered in thick paint/varnish then its a bleach bath and full paint job.Mark Dudleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13331203191073034775noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7538035190723791338.post-16128066388087181582018-01-01T09:47:51.968-08:002018-01-01T09:47:51.968-08:00Lovely toys Mark...

I actually think it's harder to touch up a figure that it is to start from scratch with the problem of matching colours but you have done these figures proud.Strykerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14258922461691204362noreply@blogger.com
