Step 3Drying and Setting
Now let the latex dry completely. I recommend using the blow dryer to speed up the process for about 10 minutes and then taking a 15 min break to let the latex cure even more or until you have a dry application.
Once the latex has dried you will need to set it with some Neutral Set Powder to take away the tackiness and to make sure the make-up does not gelatinize the application. Shake off access powder.
Setting will often dull the colors and leave a powdery residue on your application. Dabbing the piece with a piece of damp toilet paper will fix these problems.
The piece is now dry, set and ready for the next step of production, make-up application.

Yeah, mine smells a bit fishy too. Not *too* awful but definitely distinctive.

Uhm... it should have a distinct odor, but I wouldn't compare it to real old fish.
