hey guys, its time for our first do-it-yourself feature!  for the next week or two, we’re going to be providing you posts about different ways to customize a do-it-yourself (diy) figure.

this latest feature was written by kat brunnegraf from custom toy lab.  although she chose a mad*l, you could definitely apply this to most diy vinyl figures (like a munny or a qee).  back in the day, when blanks weren’t available, you’d have to start with a already painted figure.

here’s the cute little mad*l kat chose.  first you’re going to need a bit of nail polish remove or thinner to strip the paint.  after stripping the paint, apply a bit of primer to prep it.  everybody has their own preference of paint, but kat chose to use acrylics.  after a little patience, and a spot of creativity, you too can have your own red night walker!

awwwwww….
