Another opinion

Post by Its me »

Hi another two cents worth, :roll:

Always prime.........

I recommend GW Skull White spray while more expensive than automotive paint they have a finer nozzle and paint formatted for models.

Use vallejo modelling acrylics aplied with a FLAT brush, then wash with Windsor Newton Peat brown Artist ink, and if you want a highlight dry brush with buff or very light grey (sky grey comes to mind) depending on the base colour schemes.

Have fun cheers Rex :D

Rex,
I like your "tag line" -- it brings to mind one my mother told me...

"Things were going pretty bad for me, and my mother told me "Cheer up! Things could be worse!" So I cheered up -- and sure enough, things got worse!"

Have a good day! :)

Regards,
