Thanks to everyone who has responded, and I have read all entries with great interest. Einion, there is minimal handling of the figure. In fact, the only time I touched it was when my hand brushed up against the already-completed shoes, so that I could paint some buttons on the jacket, and...

Thanks for the response Wendy. I guess that brings me to another point: Has anyone out there had success at spraying, say a Testor's Dullcote over Vallejo acrylics, without any ill side effects? I have no problem doing that, as long as I retain the flat finish that I love from the Vallejo...

Hello everyone, I am truly awe-struck at the work I have been viewing on this page. It is a pleasure to see all of this great work, and has inspired me to "get back into" painting again. I have been away from the hobby for about seven years now (family commitments), and have recently set up...
