@PaintBasket Thanks thats helpful. I'll use my acrylic paints for my paper sword I am making. :)

I got a question. Do you know whats the best kind of paint that gives a nice shin?

[PaintBasket]

@MissKoolcat666 paints tend to be semi gloss at best. You best bet is to varnish the painting afterwards to get a shine to it. Obviously this advice will only work for oil and acrylics and not for watercolour ;-)
