Guest Posted January 31, 2019 Report Share Posted January 31, 2019 Without trying to sound like a serial killer in training, how thick do the gloves need to be where they don't leave fingerprints when working with epoxy putty? Working at a bit larger scale as I want to putty up a "rib cage and spine" for for one of my 40k Renegade Knights. I'm worried about fingerprints at this scale, though I suppose I could just sand them off later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ish Posted January 31, 2019 Report Share Posted January 31, 2019 Keep the expoy moist and keep your fingertips damp. A small bowl of just warm side of lukewarm water works well. Be sure your hands are freshly cleaned before you start. It’s the skin oils more than texture that causes fingerprints. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frowbakk Posted January 31, 2019 Report Share Posted January 31, 2019 You can keep your sculpting tools wet too. Don't forget that you don't have to sculpt the entire thing in one go, either. Some paperclips with an ugly looking coating of greenstuff you can still bend into position before going back in and smoothing out the top layer to what you really want, or incorporate a broken chicken bone to get the realistic broken rib effect. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
