This is my repaint of a 1/6 scale doll head of Buffy (Sarah Michelle Gellar) from the Buffy the Vampire Slayer TV drama using the Grumbacher Max water mixable oil paint.
The doll head is made out of some type of rubber material. Solvent paint like traditional artist oil or enamel will never dry on this kind of material due to chemical reaction. The paint will become sticky. The only paint will dry on this type of material is water base paint like acrylic. Since Max paint is water mixable oil, I have given it a try and paint the doll head using my same technique as with traditional oil with all of my figure painting. The result is excellent and it dry up nicely to an egg shell finish. The only problem is, it is impossible to remove any mould lines on this rubber material.
