Title: Painting playmo skin, what color?
Post by: Ali Baba on May 28, 2010, 20:58:13: Say you want to make a bald clicky, what paint would you use? Is there paint available that exactly matches the colour of skin of the original clicky?

Post by: Bill Blackhurst on October 15, 2010, 18:36:10: Use TESTORS water based hobby paints White 52244550117, & Israel Early Tan 52244553422. Custom mix these 2 colors together to match the Klicky's head with an approximate ratio of 2 drops of tan to 1 drop of white, & adjusting amounts depending on figure tint, because of age, & possible previous fading.

Post by: Bill Blackhurst on October 16, 2010, 00:41:21: No problem, glad to help! I recommend using a medical liquid eye dropper to mix the appropriate ratio because it's more precise!

Post by: Daniela on October 16, 2010, 09:07:38: I used for my Chippendales skin a mixture of Humbrol Enamel No 82 Matt (kind of orange terracotta) and Revell Email white No 04.

Just to give you another possibility. ;)

Tonguello, me too can't wait to see your new customs! Love your ladies! :love:

Great to hear another option, Daniela! Can you tell us the ratio recipe :prays:?
Title: Re: Painting playmo skin, what color?
Post by: Daniela on October 16, 2010, 16:03:33: Sorry Bill, I can´t.

I use to give a little bit of both colors side by side on a piece of painting paper and mix it until the color is matching the playmo skin.

I think, it could be 2 parts white and 1 part orange, but I don´t know. It´s a little bit of try and error for me. ;D

Post by: tonguello on October 24, 2010, 15:58:21: Hi guys!
I bought the paint Daniela suggested. Thanx Daniela! I haven't tried it yet but I noticed that it is almost exactly the color of egipcian clickies skin! A tinny bit redder, but works perfectly. I added a pic. I hope it can be seen.
It is Humbrol Enamel 82 Matt. To match the clickly skin you would have to spray a satin barnish later otherwise it would have the same color but a different "shineness" (is that a word? ;D)
Hope this helps.
I'll try caucasian skin later this week.
Cheers!!

Post by: Daniela on October 25, 2010, 07:22:49: Gaston, you made my day!

I was so happy to find a painting for the pale skin, I overlooked it´s perfect for the darker skin, too.

I am such a fool, I never realized! :-[

Thanks, Gaston!
