Hello, Stefano...

I have come back to look at these again.

I hope you do not mind me asking... I admire your painting style and the finish on these. Are these painted in acrylics, or did you use oils and then clear coat once cured? If the letter, what clear coat did you use?

They have a muted but still bright finish to them. Lovely. Would love to be able to pull off something similar with mine.

Thanks.

Hi!
This figures are 100% Historex.
I use acrilico Andrea Model, very matt.
The only embroidering are pure naples yellow oil color, on an acrylic base.

Hi, thank you for the information.

Love all the figures. Great construction and painting.

You even manage to make those Historex hands work (I usually end up removing them).
