I picked this up and painted it for Jen as a Christmas present. It's a resin model from Scibor. It took a bit of work to get the model together. The door had a lot of extra resin, and the top of the ornament did not have the nice loop you see there, I had to add that. On the back, I free-handed the date. I wanted to do more freehand, but I ran out of time. I can't wait to paint the Easter Dwarf I also picked up....
Wow! What a great find. Was Jen surprised?
ReplyDeleteIs there a special trick to preparing resin? I worry that the paint won't stick properly.
Jen didn't get it at first. She thought I bought an ornament. She didn't understand that I painted it.
ReplyDeleteI used a gray spray primer, which took over 24 hours to dry! After that, it took the paint really well! I wonder if all resin paints so well.
