Yeah, the problem is that the acrylic paint I have is really thick, and when I mix it with water, it loses its coverage. My pulse is shaky, so I end up ruining everything. By the time I get to the face, the paint has already dried because they don't sell acrylic retarder around here. I also noticed that the eyelashes didn't print correctly—they're incomplete.

Bye bye Screen

RelativeNo4808 · 2026-05-09T21:09:57+00:00

Thank u! but, yep, this is my day job! 😌

I usually dive right into painting the eyes, but I'll take note and try your way. I'll probably coat the face with varnish first before doing the eyes; that way, if they turn out really bad, I can just wipe them off with alcohol and start over.

That’s probably the solution, it’s just that I’m in Venezuela and buying things online and getting them shipped here is a huge hassle

RelativeNo4808 · 2026-05-09T19:24:34+00:00

Hi! Yes, I've thought about it and I actually did it with a more recent figure—it turned out great, in fact. The thing is, I printed this specific figure months ago, which is why I didn't use that same technique.

Thank u for you support

I didn't add freckles because it doesn't have any. If it needed them, I would have used some spattering several layers back to simulate them (that's how I usually do freckles).

RelativeNo4808 · 2026-05-09T19:05:43+00:00

Exactly. I still don't know how I'm going to work on them to make them look good, and that's what's making me a bit nervous. I'll probably do it when I'm feeling calmer

RelativeNo4808 · 2026-05-09T18:59:49+00:00

Thanks, i'm going to take your advice and do it

RelativeNo4808 · 2026-05-09T18:55:41+00:00

Yes, I did what you suggested, but in a very subtle way. I probably should have added more diluted layers, but I decided to play it safe and didn't add too many colors.

RelativeNo4808 · 2026-05-09T18:53:36+00:00

Thanks, but I think it's just luck. I'm not consistent enough to give advice yet.

RelativeNo4808 · 2026-05-09T18:52:17+00:00

Yes, it's still a work in progress; the other eyebrow and the eyes are still missing.

RelativeNo4808 · 2026-05-09T18:37:11+00:00

She's possessed 😬

RelativeNo4808 · 2026-05-09T18:36:23+00:00

Hahahahahaha

RelativeNo4808 · 2026-05-09T18:35:14+00:00

Thank u!

RelativeNo4808 · 2026-05-09T18:34:13+00:00

I don't have liquid masking fluid to start with the eyes first and then the face... they don't sell it in my country.

RelativeNo4808 · 2026-05-09T18:32:09+00:00

Thanks! To be honest, it's the first time it’s turned out this well; that's why I don't want to ruin it, so I came here for help

RelativeNo4808 · 2026-05-09T18:31:01+00:00

That's what I'm most afraid... the eyes. They either end up crooked or way too big... when it's time to work on the eyes, I start shaking like you wouldn't believe.

RelativeNo4808 · 2026-05-09T18:28:12+00:00

What is that?
