Go over the eyes, lips, hair, and any other small details on your figures. Don’t forget to thin the paint with water before you use it. After you’re finished using one paint color, rinse off the brush or grab a new brush to use with a different color. If you want the colors on your figures to be more vibrant, apply multiple coats of paint. Let the paint dry completely between each coat. Make sure the paint on the figures is dry before you add highlights. Add a drop of light-colored paint to your palette. Without thinning the paint with water, dip the end of a small brush into the paint. Brush the paint onto a dry paper towel until most of it’s off the brush. Then brush the dry, leftover paint on the brush over the sections of the figure you want to highlight.  When you’re finished, you should see highlights on all the raised surfaces on the section of the figure you went over. For the best results, use a lighter shade of the same color you used for the section you’re going to highlight. Paint wash is a thinned version of paint that will settle into the nooks on your figures, giving them a shaded look. Pour some paint wash onto your palette. Dip the tip of a small brush in the paint wash and brush a liberal amount of the wash over the entire surface of your figure. Let the wash dry on the figure. You can find paint wash online or at your local paint store. Brush water over the area you messed up on using a clean brush. Then take a paper towel and dab it on the area to absorb the paint. Let the area dry and then go over it again with more paint.

Q: All skydivers must carry a Third-Class Medical Certificate, granted by a doctor, in order to participate in a jump. Visit your doctor and ask if you have any medical conditions that will prohibit you from skydiving. Ask if you are on any medications that will impair your ability to skydive, and talk about your medical history with your doctor. Request a Third-Class Medical Certificate and bring it with you on all future skydiving jumps. Avoid alcohol or other impairing drugs. Any person that has drunk alcohol or is on any drugs or medications that impair judgment and cognitive abilities is not allowed to skydive. If you are under the age of 18, it is illegal for you to participate in any skydive activity in the United States. If you are over 16 years old, you may be able to participate in some training in the United States, depending on the school, if you are granted parental consent. Before booking an appointment at a drop zone, ask what their age requirements are. If you are skydiving outside of the United States, ask your specific drop zone what their age requirements are before spending any money. Some countries will allow people of 16 years and older to skydive. Visit http://www.dropzone.com/dropzone/ to find the nearest drop zone and assess whether it is right for you. Consider the location and read reviews of the drop zone online. Be sure that the drop zone is affiliated with the USPA, which all U.S. drop zones should be, and ask if they offer first jump courses. Make your appointment with the drop zone of your choice.  Each drop zone will offer different services at different costs. Ask what elevation you will be diving from and whether the drop zone offers video footage to document your trip. Consider joining a skydiving club offered through a university or other organization. This will ensure you visit a reputable drop zone and you may make some friends along the way. As skydiving is an “extreme” sport, there are some very legitimate risks that must be taken into consideration before you pursue a skydiver’s license. The United States Parachute Association (USPA) has recorded an average of 35 skydiving fatalities every year, with hundreds of thousands of jumps recorded every year.  Take this risk into consideration before making your first jump and committing yourself to the skydiving school. Skydiving fatalities are rarely a result of equipment failure, as skydiving equipment has become more and more reliable over the years. Fatalities are often a result of human error, so becoming a safe skydiving demands a high level of commitment and dedication.
A: Meet the USPA medical requirements. Meet the USPA age requirements of being 18 years or older. Find a drop zone near you. Be aware of the risks.
