How to Patina a Funko Pop
Nooo, don't patina your Funkos! The whole beauty of these figures is their bright, vibrant colors that match the characters they’re modeled after. Altering them with a patina effect might ruin their aesthetic and potentially decrease their value if you ever decide to sell.

I actually patina'd a Funko Pop of my favorite character to make it look like a bronze statue. Diluted acrylic paint did the trick! It’s sitting on my bookshelf now, and honestly, it looks super cool. Definitely makes it stand out from the rest of my collection.
Patina-ing a Funko Pop, you say? Well, if you're looking to give that stylized little figure an antiqued look, you’re in for a fun project! You can achieve a faux patina effect using a mix of green and black acrylic paints, diluted with water. Gently dab the paint onto your Pop in the areas you want to look aged, then wipe away excess before it dries to keep it looking natural. Adding a matte sealant afterwards can help protect your masterpiece. Just remember, any modifications will likely alter its collectability, so choose a Pop you’re cool with customizing!
