I wouldn't because the base of that would stain. Google artisty face pallets they are made to wipe clean. It is a flat surface though. ..good luck

You may want to coat it with something so that it doesn't stan. The material is somewhat soft and pliant.

Yes, it can be used for the face. I don't ever use it. I use the attachment.

You can paint almost anything with this. But painting a house would take a very long time (an average size house) considering it only has a one quart cup, it won't be the most efficient way to go ( unless you have loads of time and patience, and it's YOUR house). This unit is made for small to medium jobs. They're 2-5 gallon capacity airless paint sprayers available if you want to paint a house

Yes you can but I would return it if I were you. I purchased this product and it performed well when I first mixed it but could not go back and used the mixed paint later....it had turn almost solid and no amount of water softened it up.

No...the instructions clearly say this would be a bad idea....do not know why you cannot use it on your face, but I would not do that.

Probably, bu I would not though as the surface is very glossy. If you did paint it the surface would have to be roughed up for the paint to stick and go on evenly.

I don't recommend that. Because the model is very beautiful and detailed, and you need to get the feel about how to organize the pieces, what to paint first, how to handle the crystal clear parts, when to paint and glue, and how to get the finishing an final assembly of the whole set. You can try first with a smaller model, with detailed painting, decals and clear parts, so you can acquire those skills and then go for the B52. Takes a lot of patience and well on my first model I glued the pieces before paint them and it was a huge mistake, just an example on my own experience. Good luck friend! I don't recommend that.

Yes. You can use it on your face. I'm actually returning mine because I think my button is defective but the use of it is pretty simple. Just capture the hair, grab it and hold down the button. I might try a replacement - I'm not sure, yet.

No, its not good for portrait shots. You do not want lighting blasting into the face of a subject. Lighting should come from a 45 degree angle to the subjects face.

This question was sent to me in an email which had the subject "can you answer this question?" I clicked "Yes,[I can answer the question]". But the answer is "Probably NOT a good idea" My comment below gives more details. But if you are not well experienced with using epoxy paint, I would not recommend you use this gun for experimenting.

Yes, though make sure you don't lose the extra nibs. I'm not a great artist and the skill is more important than the tablet (this is a pretty baseline one, I think).You can definitely draw with it.

Yes it's a good kit for learning. And the pigments are very small so you wouldn't be able to get very far with them .

Yes. Just make sure you have a Good portrait Lens on. It is very sharp Pictures

Yes, but I recommend using very little pressure, as it can bite and burn. I recommend a model specifically for the face.

Probably, but the paint would burn off quickly. You would need a high heat ceramic paint or a charcoal based paste.

With some imagination and creativity, you could use it however you wish. You could tape the image you wish to draw or trace to a wall or to the bottom of the "Artograph". You would have to figure out how to support the "Artograph" above the horizontal surface. As a matter of fact, I may well be doing this myself, as I wish to reproduce some old early 1900's family pictures. Either that, or I will somehow affix a blank canvas to a wall to draw on. You are only limited by your own imagination !!!

I think you could. Not sure what accessory you would need. I have a friend who has an airbrush makeup compressor. They are basicly the same thing but a different gun.
