SlowCoder Posted February 14, 2012 Share Posted February 14, 2012 I found the avatar of your "albino" CV rather interesting. Would love to see some larger pics, if possible. Interested in knowing if you just painted it, or some other process? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SlowCoder Posted February 14, 2012 Author Share Posted February 14, 2012 This should be a PM That was my first thought, also. But I figured there might be other people interested. Are you? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Yurkie Posted February 14, 2012 Share Posted February 14, 2012 It was already brought up by me "off topic" in another thread and he said it was "dye" not "paint". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coleco_master Posted February 14, 2012 Share Posted February 14, 2012 ok.. i need to clarify something... i have to admet that my english is not 100%, I use Acrylic coated paint. at first i didn't know what "DYE" mean. I tought DYE was like coated, sorry for the missunderstood. After seaching for DYE i found out that you can DYE something darker but you can't make it lighter. Maybe someone else as more information about DYE? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
