Has anyone used Cel-Vinyl paints? If so, what do you think of them?

I've used them on animation cels long ago (88-90). Still have a little left over sealed in 35mm film cans. Last I checked they were still liquid. Some of the animation cels I held onto are still as bright as they were back then (of course they haven't been exposed to sunlight very often either.

I know they're are some toy/action figure painters who use it to paint up the prototype masters for the factories to use as paint masters.

Overall, durable and flexible, but you pay for it ($$$$$).

You betcha!

I forgot to add, I think the name of a good supplier for that stuff is Cartoon Color. I've been on their website within the past year. A google search will turn it up, but I think it is www.cartooncolor.com

HTH,

I used to use CV paint to do prototypes for Kenner. They are okay and some vynil fig guys swear by them.

Cheers,
