Any recommendations for brands, specific types? I’m sure any matte spray sealer would work, but I want to make sure there will be a smooth non-runny finish.

i've used the model master stuff before by testors. Not sure if anyone would recommend anything else. i think it would be the flat coat from the pictures.

I love that model. I think that was on display at a museum for a little while. So awesome.

And thanks for the recommendation. Oh wait. The spray can variant is discontinued. I know. Google is my friend. I’ll start looking.

Yep. No translucent resin. Probably a better material for the purpose. This one didn’t need it imo.

Grats. Jack, looks awesome! Crazy looking piece, I'll be seeing mine next week. I missed the boat with this one but was contacted by CM a few days ago about my waitlist and scored one today. A little nervous about the weight and size you mentioned. Paleman looking a little pale here isn't he? Don't know, never seen the movie. LOVE ECCs' use of translucent resin, even though some pieces feel like they need a bit more paint, hopefully this one has it too, can't quite see.

The quickest way to double your money is to fold it in half and put it back in your pocket.
