Hi

Some of my AIP Sudan collection. Stunned by how well these figures painted up! Loved doing them!

Nice! These are the best-looking painted AIPs I've seen!

Thank you! They are great figures to paint, and the Sudanese were a real joy! There are more pics here of the figures as a group and individually.

What do you use as a primer?

What do you use as a primer?

I normally use plasticote. Before priming I wash figures in hot water with a bit of sugar soap, then gave them a very light brush all over with a small brass wire brush to give them a key for the primer.

Nice tip on the Plasticote - I'll have to find some. I've been using plastic bonding spray paint like Fusion to prime and prep my plastic. It works pretty well. Kudos on making those figures look so good. I am not usually fond of AIP. Great paint jobs.
