Alright, I have several of the older models from carnegie that I'd love to refurbish making them better. I'm just not to sure how to do it and make it look as good as the prototypes. So please give me some tips!!! I want to work on the following: 2000 Triceratops (Re done like the 2007 model) 2002 Styracosaurus (Something a little more naturally colored) 1996 Corythosaurus (Similar to the Corythosaurus in JP 3) Any tips? What kind of paint?

What kind of paint? You want to browse around here if you haven't already : dinotoyforum.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=customLots of interesting pieces and some paint tips. If you subscribe to PT Steven Demarco has an article on painting in each issue as well. Myself..I use a variety of brushes and paints..mostly craft paint but some sprays as well. I also tend to prefer dry-brushing as it brings out the most detail. To start you will probably want a good primer. I've used flat black, grey and white myself in a spray.
