^.^                                                                                                              What do you use to seal your finished pony and where do you buy it? Just curious what everyone else is using, thinking theres probably some better options out there. The stuff I buy at my local craft store is really pricey, and while it says you can use it on dolls and stuff, it takes FOREVER to dry and the end results aren't stellar.

Agreed, Dullcote is definitely my favorite.  The matte effect really helps add a professional look, imo.  And usually it's dry to the touch in a half hour or so in my climate (although I still recommend letting it "cure" for longer than that, it's just nice to know that if I accidentally brush up against it I won't ruin hours of work!)

Testors Dullcoat, or Mister Super Clear---I buy it from Amazon. I use it for BJD and MH so it's always around. I use Triple Thick for glossing eyes.
