Britain 47016 Gloss and Matt (1 Viewer)

[jomartvr]

Hello,
Following the Lt's instruction I converted one of two Br 47016 from a gloss to a matt finish. I am happy with the result and will probably buy more glossy redcoats and spray them with a matt finish.
Cheers,
Benjamin

Jomartvr,
From what I can see, it came out great. Was that the matte spraypaint from Rustoleum?

Hi,
I used Kryon matte spray 1311. I have posted new photos as the old ones were too small.
Cheers,
Benjamin

Hi Benjamin,

Thanks for posting the larger pictures. Now, I can more easily see the difference between the figure treated with Krylon matte spray and the figure with the glossy finish. The photos are very helpful!

Warmest personal regards,

Pat

Yes. Joe (The Lt.) has used a Krylon gloss spray to convert matte to glossy.

OMG--Michael's gone native on us playing with his new Jenkins Battle on Snowshoes sets. From 24th Foot to Medieval Night to Huron warrior. Looks like you are having fun.

Hi Randy,

I am going to try do this ie: convert matte to gloss with a clear gloss spray.

There are a few matte figures in my collection, so I shall try this next weekend.

Best, Raymond.
