I have a question for those of you who paint your carvings. What type of paints are you using? Craft store acrylics? After painting do you use an antiquing solution? Finally can or do you apply a finish ( varnish, polyurethane etc.) over the painted carving ?

Thanks for all the input fellas.

Attached pics are my first painted topper. After looking at the gnome I just finished my wife wanted me to make one with the ears over the hat. I did this one yesterday and finished today with the acrylic paints she uses for her crafting. Once I find a stick I will finish with spar urethane. Once again thanks for all the suggestions.
