Title: So, I finally painted Olympia...
Post by: allosaurus on June 22, 2011, 07:49:39 AM
... I'm a little busy right now, but when I get back from my Public Speaking class, I'll take some pictures. 

I will note that I dislike the texture directly afterward (I ended up covering nearly all of her in paint), but this issue was fixed by pulling on various parts of the skin-- spreading the paint apart and making it more flexible, too.

Sounds great - I can't wait to see!  ;D

I know what you mean about pulling the skin - with the inks I kept adjusting the Pleo's position to extend the skin surface at the area I was painting, to try and give the paint its best chance.

 I painted one of my guys today too, but will post the photos in the original spot where we first started, It is a mix of Inks and other special stuff. ;)
      Can't wait to see Olympia.

Oooh  that does sound exciting. ;D  So now we have two more newly painted pleos. ;D
Keep us posted guys.  We always want to know how it feels and if it stretches and moves with the dino or if there are any issues with it and of course pics are essential.  :)

I may never know if it moves with Olympia.  If you don't remember, she's probably dead.  Or sort of in limbo.
