Armed with paint thinner, a cheap toothbrush, some toothpicks, and plenty of elbow grease, I set out to undo the Dullcote frosting. Three weeks later, this is the result. These are the exact same figures in all three pictures.

After
The good news is that the paint on these is not going ANYWHERE. Archaeologists in 2,000 years, sifting through the rubble of suburban Chicago, will find Glenn's collection of miniatures with their paint jobs still intact.
Thank you for your insane work ethic and talent!
ReplyDeleteThank YOU for your patience on this project! I know you had hoped to have the figures in hand by now.
DeleteThey cleaned up well. I am deathly afraid of matt varnish, and thus use satin finish only after having been burned twice years ago!
ReplyDeleteIt only seems to be a problem over inks or the dip, at least for me.
DeleteArchival quality restoration. Next job, the mona lisa!
ReplyDeleteI feel ready. Bring it on!
DeleteI'm someone who has lived a life seemingly in the background, I must say this final indignity I have suffered almost too much to endure. You see, I have been sickly and weak since the day I was born and doomed to go through my life weakling. I seemed to have always suffered from one illness or another and could never play with the other children as I so desperately wanted to. Mother always made such a big fuss over me, also, making the situation worse as the other boys teased me mercilessly after they saw it. I was browsing the internet searching on how I could be transformed into a powerful person when I came across the email of a man named Lord Mark. who was a VAMPIRE so I told him that I has always dreamed of becoming a VAMPIRES, All i did was just to follow the procedure that i was been told, and i bet you that procedure I took change my entire life to something i ever desire, freedom, sickness free, pains free, fame, influence, connections and even more that i can. Thanks to Lord Mark. Do you want a life full of interesting things? Do you want to have power and influence over others? To be charming and desirable? To have wealth, health, and longevity? contact the vampires creed today via email: Vampirelord7878@gmail.com
ReplyDeleteThe the very next time I read a blog, Hopefully which it doesnt disappoint me around brussels.
ReplyDeleteWhat i’m saying is, It was my choice to read, but I just thought youd have some thing interesting to convey.
All I hear can be a couple of whining about something you could fix in the event you werent too busy in search of attention.
