Ok… today I’ve spent some time working on some of the backlit artwork areas, in particular the area shown in the 1st pic. Unfortunately I didn’t get a “before” pic to show the damage to the bits im repairing in this post, not from the front at least. But you can see in some of the behind pics what im attempting to repair.

First thing I had to do was to replace the missing parts of the black key lines, I used a sharpie pen in some spots and black paint in others. The 1st and 2nd pic show the parts I used the black paint on. Some of this has already been repaired and had some flat white sprayed on as can be seen, this was areas of red and white that had fine cracks that I touched up by hand that came up ok.

The last two pics show the damaged ink in the womens legs and arms, and an attempt to touch up by hand. This looked bad I thought, so I decided to clean out all of the skin coloured ink on the legs and airbrush these areas instead. Details in the next post…
