What paint you use?

What paint exactly are you using?

I know its acrylic paint but whats the name of the paint?

It's just acrilic paint, every good quality fine arts brand will do

 

There are tons of brands tamiya, liquitex, etc personally i use a italian fine arts brand, but any will do.

 

As many other topic and shops on this section already state usually for a faceup for DDs are used those tools in matter of pigments:

 

Watercolour pencils

acrylic paints

soft pastels

I edited my post above however Liquitex is one of the best brands around (the one italian brand i use is less liquid so it needs more attention while thinning but gives this results http://www.dollfiedreams.com/viewtopic.php?f=18&t=11514 so painting skills matter) , so i think yes, the most important thing is to use the right sealant because vynil is pretty delicate and just a few sealants are good for vynil, others will likely damage your head..

And another thing to remember is to not be hasty, you need to gently wash a head with delicate soap and leave it dry by air, then apply 1 or 2 sealant coat, leaving every coat dry at least 30 minutes, and just after that you can start faceupping, because it you apply acrylics on vynil without sealant it will stain and ruin the head..

Oh thanks! Now im gonna go order some paint

Remember ordering also the right sealant (won't come too cheap if you choose MSC) which is more important than paint probably
