I didn't and paid for it in grief. Paint consistancy is critical (this is acrylic). Small batches of paint dry quickly. For example: on the chutes and straps. By the time I was to the third guy (5 min.) the paint had thickened and skinned around the edges already on the palette. Gloppy paint is not good. |

Robert De Niro and Pauly Shore? ;o/ Well this is the point where these would go into a silicon mold and cast up some wax figures for fine detailing. but these are as far as these will go. Except paint. Hands will be hidden under the instrument panel. |
