I have landed on Krylon

The can of Krylon Matte Finish may look like a rocket booster, but it's just a "new and improved" component of my dummy makin'.

I was able to look closely at figures made by builders I admire at the VentHaven CoVENTtion.  I was very impressed with the work of Albert Alfaro, Jimmy Eisenberg and Mike Palma.

We also traded tips.

Mike suggested I try Krylon Matte Finish to reduce the natural shine of acrylic paint.  So I've purchased a can and I'll spray my newly-painted dummy heads.  Mike suggested that I spray from a distance of about 2-3 feet.  He also suggested that I spray outside, which is another reason I built the portable figure stand.
