Notes · Q & A
What's the difference between a paint and a wash?+
Paints are opaque colour for coverage; washes are thin, pigmented fluids that flow into recesses to add shading and depth. Most painters use both.
Can I use these paints in an airbrush?+
Many acrylics can be thinned for airbrushing — check the product description; ranges marked "Air" or "airbrush-ready" work straight from the bottle.
Do I need a primer?+
Yes for bare plastic, resin or metal — primer gives paint a surface to grip and prevents chipping.

Perfect for an Airbrush
Lovely creamy texture, I thin it 1:1 with Tamiya X-20A thinners. I always use the paint manufacturer’s thinner, I’ve always found it to give the best results. The smaller jars I’ve found perfect for my airbrushing. Admittedly, there’s not the range in colours as say Vallejo Model Air but with a bit of trail and error, a suitable shade can be mixed. For that grimy shade, I use XF-1, XF-63 & XF-64. Thoroughly recommended
