Been putting it off because it sounded intimadating. Well, I just finished it on a practice blank. Did the forgrip, real seat, and 1 eye, just to see how it would turn out. If it drys the way it looks, I will be very satisfied. I had some old Testors enamal pait sitting around. I poured off the top chemicals and used the pigment., worked great. I'll let y'all know in the morning how it is turnning out.

Go for it! Nothing to be intiminated by. It's pretty much a no-brainer. A lot of fun and very unique results. No two alike. Post a pic!!
