Shields

Postby Bodhi » Sun Oct 13, 2013 10:07 am

I've noticed a number of shields that seem to have some sort of coating on them and then directly painted as opposed to cloth coverings. Any tutorials on this? I don't even know what people are using.

Plastidip. A search should turn up lots of stuff.

Fitz Caliston of Caliston Armory has a very detailed tutorial on plastidipping, as well as a video series on it. Also, if you use Facebook, join the Plastidip Artists page. There are tons of resources there, as well as advice from some of the best plasti-dip artists in foam fighting.
