Painting a "Wet" person

(1/1)

rob:
Any advice for painting a Wet model?

I just bought "Bathtime for Bubbles" and obviously, I want her to be wet.

Spray on MATTE varnish everywhere then come back with a non- matte paint on varnish for her. the reflection should look just like a sheen of water... you could probably use the non-matte on the water itself, bubbles too, for same effect.

rob:
I was thinking of trying something like the GW Water Effects

(Or the generic equivalent at a fraction of the cost  :D )

IbsontheGrey:
Like most things GW these days, I suspect it's overpriced non matte varnish with their logo on it. Try a test piece my way and save some money.... or find that generic one.

I find normal clear spray paint (non matte varieties) usually has the look you want. You just need a brush variety.

Cheers mate! Look forward to seeing the result.

rob:
Heh. Now to find time to actually paint :-)
