This started life as a sand mold from Dollar Tree but works well with 28mm figures after paint was applied. |

So that's the mold? I bought several of these a few years back, never did anything with them. Did you have any trouble getting the paint to adhere to that kind of 'shiny' plastic? |

Some acrylics will stick to the sand castle stuff well, others not. Worst case, you do a couple of extra coats to get coverage. Krylon primer will set you up some pretty much any paint will do well. inlgames.com/sandc.htm |

I made sure to clean it and make sure there weren't any shiny areas. It took three Dark basecoats before I went to the browns for drybrushing. |
