Hi everyone,
I have been out of the modeling scene for quite a while. Last model I built was about 15 yrs ago and I painted it using a rattle can and some testors enamels. But recently, I’ve had an itching to do some real model making again.
I purchased an Iwata HP-BCS about a year ago for other projects, so I’m familiar with some paints. I’ve been using mostly medea acrylics for painting resin and vinyl kits. I find that medea goes on very thin and requires several coats before color even begins to show.
So, what would be a decent paint brand that will work well on the Fine Molds kits (I’m not sure if they’re resin or styrene). I generally prefer acrylics because of the easy clean up and lack of odor, but if you guys think that enamels would work better, could you suggest a brand and whether or not they need to be thinned.
Thanks,
Fred
