I recently spray painted my ravenwing battleforce and a razorback in the snow. I figured it would be alright because there was calm weather. So i placed it in the garage then I thought about humidity. Now i wonder. IS this going to ruin the paint?

You should be able to notice if the spray paint reacted wronge or had problem once it dried. My guess is you should be fine unless something looks wrong

I've done this recently. I had to spray my new rhinos Turned out even better than I hoped. The cold humidity made the paint dry slower, but it had more time to 'cure', so it turned out better!

Similar thing happened to me recently during the UK's cold snap and something which I have never ever seen before.

A land raider I sprayed white started drying an off-white colour (kind of like a bleached bone type colour).

A predator sprayed at the same time with the same can started drying white but with a rose tinge. Which was odd considering I was spraying over a dark blue model (couldn't be arsed to strip).

Probably work

I typically paint outside when cold and immediately take inside. I've never noticed any problems.

I've done models in the garage in the winter too, always came out fine. Now that I don't have a garage anymore what I do is run out on my balcony and spray everything, then I just bring it inside to dry and try to ignore the smell.
