Garrick Backer from SyFy's "Cosplay Melee" and his wife, Jackie discuss all the different ways you can modify acrylic paints for your cosplay projects. Learn how to color match anything, about faux finishes like metal or leather, and how to make your own flexible fabric/foam paint. Jackie and Garrick run KnowOne's Designs together and are award-winning prop and costume makers who also have a background in the arts. Jackie has a B.A. in art education, while Garrick has managed a fine-arts supply store for several years before working full-time for himself.
