mnkeyb0y Report post Posted November 18, 2019 What is the best way to add some color to the tooled areas to highlight them and make them more noticeable. I know I could potentially paint them but thats going to be a pain to do with the scales area so I'm hoping there are better options. Thanks for any help!

fredk Report post Posted November 18, 2019 What I would do is; use a fine nib paint pen to out-line the letters and dragon head - some workers on here use a small bottle of paint with a very fine applicator needle to do the same job. On the scales I would paint over them all and the surrounding area with a couple of coats of a resist such as 'Pledge' floor polish - which is actually a thin acrylic varnish. When that is dried I'd paint over the scales with my colour and before it had fully dried wipe it off the top areas using a solid block covered in cloth or kitchen roll paper. The block will keep the cloth just wiping the top and not allow the cloth to clean out the groovey bits Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
