D for Dipping Shop

Here, the figurines are placed on needle-like rods before being dipped head first into a primer bath and then spun rapidly to shake off any excess primer. This process is repeated three times before the figurines are left to dry for at least ten days. The first two dips form the base coat for the figurines, while the final dip in varnish prepares the surface for later painting.
