    What Paint Works Best on Type-S Hands?

    Hey, folks!

    Just curious - anyone know the best paint/dye I can use to color some Type-S hands? I have a couple of customs in mind (the Shadow for one) that need BLACK hands. Any help would be appreciated.

    Also, can anyone recommend a male head with a big nose on it, like the Shadow?

    Happy Holidays, and thanks in advance!

      I'm using the Chris head from the LJN SWAT figure,for a custom Trickster, his hair is blonde, but he has a big nose.
      Color his hair and he'd be perfect!

            ^What he said^ Vinyl paint is the most durable. Available at auto parts stores.
            My favorite is Rustoleum Specialty Vinyl. It's cheaper, needs less coats, dries faster, but only comes in black and white.
            Available at Menards, and maybe Home Depot & Lowes.
