Painting an original Mego head
I'm getting ready to customize my spare General Ursus into Julius. Thanks to jessica I have a great Julius costume. My plan is to paint Ursus' skin from its original black to brown. What is the best type of paint to use on a Mego head? Something non-sticky would be preferred.

I use model & craft acryllics. Thinning them with a bit of gloss or matte acrylic "varnish" will make them go on smoothly & dry to a more durable finish. Using good brushes is essential!
Clean the head well before painting--I use rubbibg alcohol.WANTED: Dick Grayson SI trousers; gray AJ Mustang horse; vintage RC Batman (Bruce Wayne) head; minty Wolfman tights; mint Black Knight sword; minty Launcelot boots; Lion Rock (pale) Dracula & Mummy heads; Lion Rock Franky squared boots; Wayne Foundation blue furniture; Flash Gordon/Ming (10") unbroken holsters; CHiPs gloved arms; POTA T2 tan body; CTVT/vintage Friar Tuck robes, BBP TZ Burgess Meredith glasses. -
Any acrylic should dry non-sticky.Comment
