Thank you for mentioning my T&T set guys...
Just a small but nevertheless important notice: if you order a T&T set from WM or vendors you will get the version 3.0 only.Arthur1960 wrote: ↑Wed Jul 26, 2023 5:36 pm These sets are available as an option when placing an order for a WM doll through some vendors or can be obtained directly from The Doll Laboratory on the forum.
The newer 4.0 version is only available from me directly for the moment...

Re: TPE Teeth
The oils in the TPE usually cause adhesion problems.
Plus most acrylic white paints are not heavy in pigments, so you would need several coats.
You might want to test a small bit of your paint on a hidden area to see it it sticks prior to teeth work.
Cheers!

Yes. I'm quite familiar with acrylics and I can tell just looking it's not gonna work. There is something about the surface that does make it hard to make it take like you say. You would have to lay it quite thick too stick, too thick in my opinion. And it would likely crumble off after a bit of stress. If it was done I'd recommend high quality stuff, the expensive kind.Wheezer wrote: ↑Fri Jul 28, 2023 3:52 pm The problem with acrylic paint is getting it to stick and stay on.
