Okay, so I've gotten couple requests for a tutorial, so here it is! Hopefully, it was worth the wait. Haha, I downloaded a comic book font just for this! :P Well, this is the guide I wish I had when I first started. Anyways, I hope you guys have as much fun reading it as I had making it!

Oh, and here's Konako's tutorial that I mentioned: [link]

Edit: Okay, small update. I tried that Rustoleum primer again and this time it was a lot more matted. I am officially switching to Rustoleum primer!!

Edit 2: Realized it was sticky the first time because I didn't allow the acetone to completely dry from the figure. (I first tried Rustoleum on a Dunny) The vinyl is pretty absorbent. So if you guys do strip the paint, give the figure a day to dry completely!

Edit 3: To be clear, it's "Rust-Oleum’s Painter’s Touch Ultra Cover 2x"

Whoa, long comment! I'm glad I could help! I don't know about a sculpting tutorial though.. I'm not that good with sculpting and I'm not exactly sure how to put what I do into words. Maybe in the future when that changes!

Is there any other good primers other than krylon primer because Deserres doesnt sell any. I was thinking of using mod podge

I actually recommend Rustoleum primer now! The coverage is amazing and it costs around the same as Krylon. As for Mod Podge, I can't really say since I've never tried it.

I found that wal mart near my house has krylon. Should I just get that or try and find rustoleum. They are pretty much the same right?

Either one will get the same results. It's just Rustoleum makes things easier. If you're impatient like I am, I always end up spraying too much Krylon in one coat since the coverage isn't as good. Then I end up having to sand the drips and bumps from the uneven coats.
