i finally got around to painting my moebius monster scenes hanging cage. i tried to just paint neon color highlights that really "pop out" under black light. almost like an old dark ride. it was kinda hard to take a photo of what it looks like in person, but here's what i got, let me know what you think! the first pic is what it looks like under normal light...

Spooky, creepy......cool. 8)
Very cool!!!!!!!
"D" ;)
NIIIIIIIIIIIIICE!!
thanks guys! it was a little tricky to paint, the uv paint dried so fast and dark that it was hard to tell what was already done. i can't wait to go pick up a few more different kits to paint the same way!
Very cool!!

Nice job!! Couldn't you have painted it while the blacklight on?! Even with a regular light on you should still be able to see the blacklight highlights, much like your 2nd picture.

thanks! that was actually my initial idea, but lack of an outlet near where i was working made it difficult. i just went out and got an extension cord so i'll be able to bring the black light over to me next time. hopefully that will make it easier.

Easier to paint but probably murder on your eyes!! :D
Wow -- very cool, in a creepy way. I like it!
Very nice., I would like to see an entire diorama done that way.

stick around long enough and you just might! i'm headed to the store this weekend to pick up a few more models to get started on.
Now that's a really cool effect!
Nice!

That looks stunning Witch Hunter! Can't wait to see more kits done this way.
I want a full sized one someday. I think they ought to use them to punish shoplifters.
What is the brand name of the Neon Paints you used?

i actually used some neon glow paint that i bought from spirit halloween when it was 50% off. i wasn't sure how well it would work, but it turned out to work pretty good
here's a link to them:

most of the glow paint i've seen online is always so expensive so i was glad that this gave a good effect, especially for the price
Gives it a look of the early 70's Fun House color schemes.
As I said before, I like to see your work on a "Monster Scenes" diorama.
kewell
i just finished the forgotten prisoner kit a few minutes ago. here are a few pics...
