My first attempt at 2 colours. Not my thing but its what somebody wanted. I don't know why but I find white hard to get on right, it seems to act differently to other colours.

Ya know, it's so different that it's cool. I too, have been getting many requests for 2 tone, 3 tone. It's a fun challenge. I like it. I notice that the white flocks do act different. I seem to remember reading that the DC finish is different for white because of the finish chemicals can tint it, so to get white and pure white alliterative chems. are used. Some of the other lighter colors tend to do that also, but a way to get a good white coverage is to make a mix of whites... meaning pure or bright white mixed with an off white or cream color. for some reason (and this may just be a trick on the eyes) when you mix two or more shades of white you can't see the scalp though it like you would if using only one shade of white. Excellent work at any rate> Thanks for the post! I know it'll get some minds-a-cooking for sure!

I never thought of mixing 2 whites together. Thanks for the info on why the white acts differently I thought I was going mad I painted the white swathe with white acrlic paint before flocking.

Nice Nemesis. Did you repaint the eyes and the brows? Does the white go all around his head?
Looks cool!
