I'm looking at mixing up an lemony amber dye for the kit using a darker hue to wash over the light to pop the flame and then clear coating from there. The only purpose I could see for the Tru Oil was to add further depth to the figure but I'm guessing I will get a similar effect from the clear coat anyway. TBH, I'd rather use acrylic or nitro as the clear finish as I have more experience with these albeit over less figured timber though.
