Sculpy Clay
When painting scuply clay is it best to undercoate it first or just
lots of little layers of the specified colour. I am painting my first model and so far have put 4 layers of yellow on and it is still not solid yellow like I would want. Any advice on painting this clay would be great. neo

Priming with white gesso would help. Helen "Halla" Fleischer, Fantasy & Fiber Artist http://home.covad.net/~drgandalf/halla/ Balticon Art Program Coordinator http://www.balticon.org
