About the Project
I am painting Stuffed Fables. The character is very cute. I skip the other project in order to finish this. I have plan to play game with my kids before the school break in Thailand around March. I am quite busy from my new job. I plan to finish 3 characters a week as plan. I am slow painter. I have around 3 hours 3 days a week. My idea is make the hero brighter than the enemy. Moreover, I will do pattern technique to make it look like the real Stuffies Hope you like it. https://youtu.be/Ub_7rdoxF7c

Trial and Error - Vanish
I mostly vanished with Thai Local Brand spray branded TVB. But I just got the new Sparkle Reflect Spray from Local Stationary Store named ‘Somjai’. The seller told me that it is fluorescent substance in the can without color, so I decided to buy and try. The result turn bad and it is foggy white on the miniature. The good thing, it reflect all the light during the night.
You can see the difference at the Snatcher Robot hands with the flash and without flash.
The Haunting Dark Hearts
Quick & Dirty Paint Jobs
Sincerely, My effort is nearly lost for this project. The minions are not that Wow for me to paint. So, I decide to make the quick mass production. My idea is there are from the same batch of doll creation as each patch of individual may come from the other minions. I picked main 6 colors and randomly painted each path. I select the green as the main colors as the art card and I want to put the opposite color for the eye to make it stand out. The center of the minion that is pulled the plastic heart out is glowing red.
