I told myself when I started that they were going to be under a two hour cap, but I knew that would never stick; wash alone has a 20-30 minute dry time. I extended that to one night only, but you really can’t be sure of anything until the paint fully cures and desaturates. All told, closer to 6 hours for tabletop standard, which has got to be a record for me. Silver dry-brush over black on the base, a little soot and patina all around. Done enough.
