More customs on the way. I have a Devitt and a flashback Kane in the works.  I've done numerous fixes to my E28 Wyatt. First, I painted 'Martyr' and the 'Buzzard' logo on the front of his shirt:  Dry brushed the hair:  Painted the glove:   Painted 'Run' on the back:  Randy Orton eyebrow repaint:  Drew McIntyre hair resculpt:   Daniel Bryan (re-done/re-visited/re-painted/whatevs   Pretty sloppy I know, but I tried. Repainted the attire. I know I posted it in the fix-up thread, but I wanted to get some feedback and tips.

I would recommend using multiple coats applied very thin, and wait for each to dry, as well as doing each color coat separately to avoid bleeding over. And maybe a finer point brush to keep your lines and edges sharp. Practice makes perfect, you'll get there.

Everything brocklock76 said plus this: Use masking tape to cover areas you don't want to get paint on and to help get a nice clean line. When working with white it is almost certain you will need to do several thin coats to get a clean white finish without the background color coming through. Also, don't forget to seal after you get it to the point you are happy using something like a Testor's glosscote (for a shiny sweaty finish) or Testor's Dullcote (for a duller dryer finish).

Rather than trying to fix the original paint you should try your own version of the attire, use a toothpick dipped in paint for smoother smaller lines, if you were willing to try to copy a Mattelpaint job I'm sure your own idea would work keep at it man for your first it's not terrible

Agree with this. Dip your brush in some water before you dip it in the paint. It won't go on so thick. I like the ideas but the execution needs some work. |

These actually look pretty good. With D-Bry, it looks like you didn't give the paint enough time to dry before trying to work with it again. I'd say be a little more patient when working on something.
