Help with that D.I.Y toy, Munny!?

Question

Ok so, had a Munny d.i.y toy for a few months now and wanna finally start! The friend who gave it too me got me some water soluble felt-tip pens and they dont work so geat. Can anyone tell me what's the best medium to use on him? Would acrylic paints be ok? Any advice welcome :)

Answer 1

Since it is made of soft vinyl I think acrylic paint may crack when it is posed or squeezed. Try using permanent felt tips and markers. If you want a wider range of colour I think gels such as Pentel Hybrids will work and they come in pastels, fluorescent and metallics. Make sure you get it right first time as they are not washable.
