I really like the look of these Sumerian chaps but they are so soft . Perhaps rubbery would be more accurate. I have dealt with soft plastic figures before but these are a different matter. I have undercoated in white glue. We will see how they hold paint...
I painted mine using acrylics and gave them a coat of gloss yacht varnish to prevent flaking , then matt varnish - seems to work .
ReplyDeleteYes, this sort of figure can be a bit of a problem. Good luck.
ReplyDeleteHope the coating of PVA worked
ReplyDeleteGloss varnish
Then Matt Varnish
Followed by basing and minimum handling
