Hello. Anyone used this paint and can share pictures after application ?

I need something shiny from my new project to achieve similar effect --> https://www.coolminiornot.com/130996

Problem Is that mini have too many tiny details so it cannot be sanded.

Anyone tryed nickel plating pewter minis ? :D

Why don't you just polish your model? That's what many historical modelers do and it was done on that wraithlord.

I am afraid that covering it with any metalizers may be even more dangerous...

Dragon? You will have a lot of work...

If you want a shinny look you can always try ALCLAD II this is used by aircraft modellers for a long time with great results
