I think I started in on it within an hour or two of getting it Saturday.
I like the idea of trying the dull cote. There's a couple gaps I'd like to fill in first.
The gel isn't the easiest to apply, the instructions are probably for a full size jacket and recommend using the card it comes with (business card? I probably tossed it) or a flat brush. The brush I used started to clump together and so some parts weren't as evenly applied and there a couple spots that didn't get hit at all , probably a good idea to have water handy to rinse it off here and there.
Thanks, Thainitty. Ignore the oversized head, just distorted iPhone pics, but here's the figure.
