Help - Painting First Mask A Disaster!

[🪦 Jluck ●]

Cut down the paint to latex ratio. The cracks are from too much paint in the mix. You only need about 30-35% paint in the mix. Add paint little by little, test out the mix by dabbing some on something scrap wise then dry in with a hair dryer, as long as it dries white and not clear-ish yellow/translucent you have enough paint in the mix. You can also use createx brand acrylics as an extra saftey measure until you get the hand of the ratios. It\'s a flexible acrylic as they were made for airbrushing T-shirts. You need to invest in some good cutile scissors. But if the latex it too thick for nice even trimming, rough trim the eyes then smooth out with a cotton wheel on a dremmel or rotary tool.
