Hi everyone 

just a question see for the belt how do you stop the paint from coming off i have primed it and then painted it but its still coming off ?

Picture please!

Though, since this is an army trooper, I think chipped paints here and there are fine - weathering! We work hard! 😂

it is OK if it chips here and there but if you clean the buckle with something like comet or a scouring cleaner, than really rinse it well, and use an adhesion promoter, the belt paint will last a bit longer. 

The nylon used in belts doesnt really hold paint well, so occassional repaints are common across the costuming community.
