Remove facial characteristics from double faced figures???
« on: May 05, 2012, 17:37:00 »
Is it any way to remove the facial characteristics from one of the two faces?For example I want to keep the normal smile,and the other side to be without face!I tried the blue of a rubber,but it's impossible.Only the 5'o clock shadow of the prisoner was removed with the rubber!

Why would you want to erase a face that remains hidden under the hair? Anyway, scratch the design with the edge of a sharp blade (scalpel or X-Acto knife), I used this to erase the moustaches from my Mongol warriors, works like a charm!
Best,

Thank you!Yes I want to erase these faces,because I want to use normal hair in these figures,which is a bit short,so I don't want the facial characteristics to be seen!

If they are printed on faces, you can use very fine wet or dry 2000 grit sandpaper, or automotive scratch removing rubbing compound.

If you hear the sound of the bell which will tell you that Grigori has been killed, if it was your relations who have wrought my death, then no one in the family will remain alive. They will be killed by the Russian people. :prays:
