Dear Fellow Hobbyst:

Greetings from NY! I have a bundle of vinyl figures that I want to use for military dioramas. Those are the 1/72 size. My questions are:

  1. How to prepare the figures before painting.
  2. Which is the best paint that will adhere better to the figures.

Thanks for your time to respond my query. With my warmest regards.

I’m interested in this answer too. I have some little vinyl “grocery store” figs and some airfix figs that I want to paint. I would guess some type of primer is necessary [?]
